What happens when Anurag (a neuroscience PhD student), Ninad (a building science engineer), and Abhinav (an AI engineer) come to my all-inclusive table to discuss their immigration journeys?
They serve the Sciencepresso Martini!
In this mini-reunion with my schoolmates, we discuss the realities of building a career abroad - the motivation to cross seas, the challenges, the compromises (personal and professional), the decision-making matrix and whether all that glitters is actually gold! We also discuss Anurag, Ninad, and Abhinav's experience of studying in an all-boys' school and seeing it convert into a co-educational space - what did they think and what I thought they thought.
This martini on my first roundtable has influences from Assam, USA, and the Netherlands. Listen in.
