About
I am a tamil penn (girl) living in the United States. I often try to strike a balance between being traditional and living in a foreign country - hence the name of the blog!
Like one who could well be a typical maami one day, I can talk non-stop about anything from politics to cooking. I go crazy around festival season and try as much as possible to not miss a single occassion to be a typical maami. On the other hand, I am like many other tamil penns of my age, a software engineer. So, well one of my other accomplishments is that I can write.. uh.. code!
I had one unsuccessful attempt at blogging, but decided not to give up and started this one! Hopefully I can keep it alive longer than the previous one.

As a 2nd generation desi (daughter of uber-traditional parents), I constantly fiind myself laughing at NRI actions & mannerisms. (Totally related to the Niagara post - what is up with the “no, ya” and the strollers EVERYWHERE?!?!?) Your blog is hilarious and very well written. Please keep writing!!
Rekha: Thank you and welcome to my blog.
