Modern Immigrant

"I Thought I Did Everything Right"; Li-Ann's Journey


Listen Later

Stop being surprised when someone emigrates. Yes, LiAnn keeps hearing people being surprised with the fact that she left Canada to come to the USA. 

LiAnn shares in this interview some of the reasons why she left Canada and also talks about her difficult but exciting decision of returning home. 

LiAnn is both an immigrant and an immigrant's daughter. Her parents emigrated from Singapore to Canada where she grew up. 

In this episode we talk about the cultural differences between Canada and the USA as well as the differences she has found within the country from one coast to another. 

We also talked about her long distance relationship and what it felt like to be an international student in an MBA program. 

We also talked about the difficulties of getting a work visa denied during a pandemic and how the lottery/work visa works.
