E19: Suhas Pai on Canada's approach to immigrants

Hello, I'd really like to grow this email list. If you enjoy this newsletter, it would mean the world to Jola and I if you encouraged one friend/fellow immigrant/colleague to subscribe…Very likely, the the only thing you will get in return is warm fuzzy feelings, and if I can attribute it to you, I’d personally send you a thank you email.

Join us as we explore the bitter-sweet world of the immigrant.

In this episode, I’m speaking with Suhas Pai, the Co-founder and CTO of Hudson Labs, who moved from India to the Netherlands as a student, and then, 8+ years later, he moved to Canada

Have you ever heard of the honeymoon phase of immigration? The phase of your immigration journey where everything seems rosy and romantic? And then reality hits you like a truck loaded with sourdough flour. From learning how the pressure of home ownership in North America affects how we approach money, to handling credit in Canada, there’s so much to unpack in this conversation.

In this conversation, Suhas and I chat about:

* Canada’s diversity and its approach to immigration

* The cultural differences between Canada and The Netherlands

* The European approach to credit and how that’s defined him

* Why he doesn’t want to own a car or a big house, and more.
