    Welcome home, Sowmya

    Dear Sowmya,

    You have come to the right place in Indusladies. I too used to feel a bit lost before I joined. If you are looking for good recipes, check out the 'Ask Chitvish' section in Home and Kitchen.

    All forums in Indusladies are really exciting.

    regards
    Vidya

    Welcome

    dear Sowmya,
    welcome to this wonderful site for Indian women. It is very difficult to move away from the familiar place, that too to a very new and different culture. Please use this oppurtunity to get to know your new country and surroundings. Do not compare with your home, nothing can be equal to that. Just think positively that you are having a new experience and enjoy it. Most people in India would just give anything to be in US.
    Never fret about what cannot be had now and instead enjoy what ever is at hand. That way you will stay happy. I am sure that you will have many new things to learn there, which you won't get a chance here. Find out and you will surely enjoy your stay there. All the best, keep smiling.
    We are all there to share your thoughts, you could even get Indian friends thro the forum.
    With warm wishes,
    varloo

    Hi Sowmya,

    Welcome to this close knitted community of Indian Ladies.

    You will find a lot of members here living in the US who are very friendly and helpful. Being a new comer to the US, you can post all your queiries about living and getting around here in the US. You will get very useful & experienced responses.

    Check out the forum - Getting by in USA/Canada - in the 'Where do you live?' section. You may find lots of information already there that you are looking for.

    I am sure you will be able to make lots of lovely friends in this community. Good luck!

    Hello friends,

    Hello Friends,
    I am Deepa Rathakrishnan. I am married for 11 years and have 2 beautiful children - 9 yr old daughter and a 3 yr old son. I have been living in the USA for the past 11 years. I am a commerce graduate from Madras University. At present I am helping my husband in our IT consulting business here in Atlanta. I am a very spiritual person having great faith in God. I truly believe in our religion, culture and its values and have been following the same all these years and have been teaching my children to do the same. I have great interest in cooking different regional cuisine. Thanks to my husband and daughter who have been encouraging me all these years and ofcourse eating whatever I make. My other hobbies are music, stitching and reading and ofcourse browsing our Indusladies forums. I personally feel it is a great place for us ladies to chat and get in touch with each other though we all live in different parts of the world. I truly appreciate the great efforts taken by the team in running this website and wish we grow to great heights in the future with more and more members.

    Best Regards
    Deepa

    This is me!!

    Hello Everyone,

    My name is Shobana Nippani . I am born and brought up in Chennai, Tamil Nadu. I have been in Chennai almost all my life. I really miss my Chennai. I live in Boston , MA now married to an awesome winner and have a 2.5 yr old daughter named Chetna. We have been kind of moving around a lot in this country due to visa reasons. But will definetely settle in a place in the near future. This gave me an opportunity to make a lot of friends. Im a very outgoing person by nature and love people. I love cooking and experimenting with new recipes. The other thing I love is reading Positive Mental Attitude Books. It gives me a great boost every day. I found this forum a very interesting and informative one. I really love the people in IL. You are doing a great job ladies!! I am a student of Vedanta Philosophy and strive to practice it every day. That keeps me going in the ups and downs of life . Hope to be a part of IL and make a difference like many ladies do here.

    Thanks & Regards
    Shobana
