Curveball - Emigration Experience Part 1

Send us Fan MailThe decision is to pack up and move away from your extended family, friends, and culture to live in a foreign land. Perhaps for work, to broaden opportunities, education, love or adventure, or simply to live a better or a different life. We imagine it might be a certain way, but it’s a leap into the unknown. What’s it like to emigrate to Australia? Guided by the host, Beth Armstrong, the guests (from India, Singapore and Brazil)   discuss in-depth why they emigrated and the experience of doing so. Speaking anonymously they share how it has altered them; it's an intriguing, winding and frank conversation. Topics include:Perceptions of Australia prior to emigratingRacism MulticulturalismAustralianismsRaising children away from your own cultureMother-guiltAussie spiritFinding new friendsApproach to relationshipsShare women's wisdom worldwide  -  for everyone.  To help, please write a review on your platform and share episodes.
