My expat journey








Shanghai, Shanghai Shi, China

Indore, Madhya Pradesh, India

Montreal, Canada
I worked in Visual Effects for films. It was great experience.
Technical Director / Software Developer / Pipeline Engineer
Montreal is a heaven for art and music lovers. The food is awesome. People are great. There is a lot you can learn from the French Culture and language. There are a number of outdoor activities including skydiving, bungee jumping, kayaking, trekking, skiing etc. You could see the seasons change. The city and areas surrounding it are of great scenic beauty.
Snow, snow and snow! 6 months a year! Temperature sometimes drops to a -40 C and usually it is as cold as -25 to -30 on an average winter.

There is nothing that I do not like about Vancouver. There is some concern about the drug trafficking in the east side of the downtown, but it is contained well by the police and local authorities.
