As an Indian, what stuns me about foreigners living here and making India their home is how adaptable they are and how they are willing to embrace it to this extent. It is obviously challenging and difficult but they just make the effort to do it. Nicole is one such person for sure! Great interview, Max.

Also for them job competition and cost of living struggles in their home countries is far greater (US / Europe / even Arabs and African foreigners who settle here) .. Indian local people friends, shopkeepers etc. realise this when they see why these people are not going back permanently? So not everything is green and roses and she is even mentioning the struggle with savings and cost of living as a foreigner in India. So you can imagine the majbooriya!

I don’t think it should “stun” you. After all millions of us Indians form the diaspora today and we successfully live in every part. And conversely as India develops economically we can expect thousands of non Indians to come and settle successfully here in India, and we should welcome it as part of our own transformation.

Wow, great video. I must say Nicole did a fantastic job. I know some Indians are terrible and some places are awful but when you look at the bigger picture, India is as beautiful and diverse as they come and its a hell of journey. Even me being a Native Indian, India is hard for me but people like Nicole who come from comfortable places to India and they still love it. That's just awesome.

Beautiful interview and content. Also salute to Nicole, a small town girl from Dakota to move to a city in India and stay for 18 years and raise a beautiful family. It can test your sanity to the hilt !! 😀

This interview offers an honest and candid perspective on living in India from a US-born, native American viewpoint. Even for Indians, traveling to new places within the country is a constant learning experience, especially when visiting regions vastly different from one's own cultural background. India's diversity presents a unique challenge, with countless layers and levels of familiarity needed-one lifetime isn't enough to fully grasp it all. The country’s rich cultural tapestry means you’ll meet a wide variety of people, each differentiated primarily by financial status, requiring a customized approach for interaction. There's no one-size-fits-all method here. The interviewee's genuine and unpretentious insights highlight the complexity and beauty of navigating life in India. Her observations are refreshingly honest, reflecting the experiences of many who have lived or traveled extensively in this incredible country.

She is nice. She has a KZread channel also. Thank you for loving and spending so much time of your life in India.

Max your format of doing interview is very honest and truthful, much appreciative. We do see more content on India, But on Singapore and Dubai are really helpful in understanding whats happening in other places.. Keep up and good going.. Truly remarkable effort..

Disagree. Saw another channel describing how in Singapore you can face criminal charges for offending someone or giving the finger. No civil proceedings. So yeah, things are safe around there if you don’t offend anyone and never mind all eyes on you “90,000 police cameras.” with more planned.

These experiences are so good to see and heartwarming.

I really enjoyed watching the full video..the interview was smooth and I loved the experience and comparison shared..she was actually being very honest..

Your subtitles are so on point, so very contextual, and so well timed. Congratulations 🙌

I spent combined total of 5 years in India. I absolutely love India and I really connected with it. returning to the US I find I feel more isolated even though I spent two years in India during covid. It was such a shock with the huge increase in rents and groceries. Finding peace in the chaos was my greatest gift i could return with. I also gained a wonderful honorary family. My blessing that i wish I could always be with.

I can imagine for her how difficult it would be to go out on her own. There are some really nice aspects of Indian society but there are some horrible ones. The way Nicole has integrated with India is incredible. She made a huge decision. She made a huge sacrifice. Her love for her husband prevailed.

Its a new lens through which i see the colleague i barely knew.

"It is a controlled chaos"..now that line is just so accurate at also beautiful. I liked this line.

I do share those worries and one more to be added is toilets and the fear of UTI. Being cautious on these and be prepared to face these situations and having alternatives at the shortest possible time and distance help. Kudos to both of you.

@MaxChernov #MaxChernov , 🙏🏾 my humble thanks to both of you for putting it straight. Foreign Tourists + expatriates are quite likely to be more receptive to what you convey than if an Indian national puts it. Like any other country, 🇮🇳 India is not perfect, but we love it very much. India keeps the gate open, it is also very welcoming. You must have noticed how liberty, independence and freedom is definitely a very Indian mentality : debates, activists, NGOs and initiatives abound. You understand, like I do, that it takes a remarkably long time to get a message across or to resolve an issue addressing more than 1 billion people ! But over 78 years, we still try to accomplish this; transcending the whole span in educational and socio-economic levels. Thanks for understanding and appreciating our diversity, its benefits too.

She has embraced India so India has also embraced her. Yes, as an Indian who has visited the West several times, I think it is v clean but one has to work a lot there. Even a tourist has to walk a lot in the West. I remember on my recent trip to Europe being exhausted at the end of the day.

Wow, my language is Telugu and my city Hyderabad.

Very interesting. You have a great laugh. It's infectious. A great attitude too. Best wishes. I enjoyed the talk. God bless
