RESEARCH HELP:

If you are Gujarati, born and brought up in London and have parents from East Africa (Uganda, Kenya, Tanzania etc) then HELLO :biggrin:

I'm doing a dissertation on how these Gujis balance the Gujarati/Indian 'culture' with the 'British' and whether their parents coming from Africa has had any effect. I'm looking at things like language, food, religion, marriage partners, patriotism, the olympics/sports ... You name it! It's all about identity and how you identify/relate to other people - how you see yourself and what your thoughts are on this topic.

If you'd like to help me out or have any questions, drop me a PM or quote me! It won't take very long and I'd really appreciate the help :redface: :smile:


Yeah I feel indian and british, just like anyone else.

So, what are the chances that your leader Modi will take over India as PM?

There's this other garbo, which I just found today, and IM IN LOVE with. It's kutchi, and its related around their kuldevi, but the style of the garbo and the singing is amazing (atleast i think so)

Punjabis are mostly warriors, fighters and farmers.
Gujaratis are mostly business people - we like to sit down, count our money and don't get much exercise.

:laugh:

I dunno actually - I just made that cr*p up.
