An Immigrant’s Life

I talked to Nature lover and motorcycle enthusiast, RJ Germino Mapoy. We talked about his experiences working as a Head Credit Collector of a motorcycle company in the Philippines, how hard it was for him to adjust to Canadian life, how his immigration became a humbling personal experience, and how perseverance helped him land the job that he always wanted.

In this episode, I chatted with the cook extraordinaire & salt of the earth, Fiona Suratt. We chatted about her childhood in Trinidad and Tobago, challenges of raising "Canadian" kids, how much cooking "consumes" her, and most importantly, how much she adores and misses her dad. 

This episode is dedicated to the loving memory of Mr. Roopdeo "Rudy" Suratt

I had a fun conversation with Photographer, Arun Somasundram. We talked about how the civil war in Sri Lanka pushed his parents to immigrate, his strict upbringing and how that made him a better supervisor at work, his travels, and his photography.

I had a heart-to-heart chat with my brother, Christian Catapusan. We talked about his dad’s passing when he was very young, how that situation pushed his mom to migrate and leave him with strangers, growing up literally “alone”, his eventual migration to Saudi Arabia to join his mom, becoming a migrant father himself, and how the pandemic made him realized what is really important.

I had an amazing conversation with Caregiver Derwil “Bong” Santiago. He told me about him being sent to jail in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia, becoming 2007 Riyadh Bartender of the Year, suffering a heart attack while away from his family, his eventual move to Canada, being played by his Canadian employer, working for a construction company that takes off asbestos off buildings, and fulfilling his dream of bringing his whole family to Canada.
