  • Hearing others' perspectives always brings out new perspectives. I interviewed two other women who are married to Indians who bring various cultural and linguistic background to their stories. Sheida is from Iran living in Canada. Parneet is French, living in Belgium.
    I asked the various questions to bring out these women's thoughts and experiences:
    1) Things you enjoy about being married to an Indian
    2) Your favorite thing about Indian culture
    3) One challenge of being cross culturally married.
    Hear their thoughts, opinions and be exposed to different cultural perspectives.
    Find Parneet @paris_punjabexpress and Sheida on Instagram.

    I'm also married to a Indian man. We have been married nearly 18 years. I love Indian food, particular Channa Masala. I am totally accepted and feel loved by his family.

      Lucky, many aren’t aloud to marry outside their caste let alone their culture, plus normally they’ll get forced to get married by arranged marriage by 35.
      If you end up falling in love and their family won’t accept you, you’re in for a lot of heartbreak 💔

    I've just come across your podcast and really enjoy it - thank you! My husband is half Indian (South Indian & French) but presents very Indian. I was raised in an Indian ashram in the US Midwest, where I learned Sanskrit at school, yoga and meditation and was more. After 30 years of marriage and 3 kids (who grew up going to temple etc) we're unpacking and reinventing the aspects of the culture that most resonate with us. It's wonderful exploring this with other TCK's and multi-cultural families. Much love from Iowa!

    I agree with most of it what you say 😂 indian culture families like to be involved with things happening with the family members at the same time my parents gave me n my sister the freedom to choose education/ profession/ partners though the last one wasn’t as easy as I said here. These days parents are more open to choose your own partner/ moving abroad for education/jobs.

    I never knew you were married to a Bihari. As a Bihari, I have mixed feelings. I always imagine foreigners finding it difficult to adjust to the backwardness of bihar in particular and india in general. I am not concerned about cleanliness or etc. But in general the Indian people arent mature enough to adjust with different skin colors. Hope you stay beautiful and happy eternally. And I hope you find India as a pleasant surprise everyday.

    Indian man will always respect you as a spouse. This is a relationship of 7 lives, not of 7 years only(US statistics of average marriage). So girls date India. Indian parents are very open minded like west. If son or daughter decides to marry person from different culture they will advise you pro and con; advise you to adjust; advise you to learn language and custom of your would be spouse. Hey, at end of the day, we all behave the same way.

      3-4 crore female foeticide happened in India, still happening.
      This American woman is getting all the views for her white skin, because indian loves it.
