Dad Without Borders

Asif - Tech Worker Trading the City for the Mountain Lifestyle


Listen Later

Asif is originally from Tanzania, raised in an Indian family but when he is 7 years old his Father dies suddenly and Asif finds himself immigrating to Vancouver in Western Canada, adjusting to life without a male role model. Years later Asif finds himself in Toronto stumbling into a career as a "tech worker" embracing the rat race of city living. When his second child arrives he and his partner make the conscious effort to secure a quieter lifestyle in a remote mountain community in Western Canada, so they can embrace a slower pace of life and focus on raising their kids. Asif stumbled into a career as a tech worker but consciously stepped into his role as a Dad. As a thoughtful and engaged Dad it was interesting to hear some of his life experiences as a parent and the incredible story of immigrating to Canada as a young boy with his Indian family from Tanzania and the impact his Mom had on his upbringing. We also talk about life as an older Dad and are we better parents or partners when child number two comes along? Please enjoy!
