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 Dapo Ajeniya, who moved with his family to Calgary, Canada, just before the world went into a COVID-19 lockdown.
We chat about his experience settling into Canada, adjusting to the new demands of parenting, Canada's newcomer benefits, the teaching style of Canadian schools, the culture shock and how the children of immigrants adjust faster to life in Canada.
In this episode, Dapo and I chat about:
* His first night
* Opening up one’s mind to new cultures
* Pressing the reset button with his kids
* Adjusting to the demands of parenting in the West
* Parenting in Naija vs. parenting in Canada
