ABOUT HER:
My daughter is a Canadian citizen. She was born in Calcutta, India 25th December 1973, 6:30 pm .
We are a middle-class, down-to-earth, Bengali family.
We moved to UAE from Calcutta,lived and worked (both of us) there for 12 years, moved to Canada and have been here now for last 17 years. We do keep in touch with our roots. We visit India almost every year. My children respect their roots and love to visit their relations (too many) back home and abroad. We, as a family, have toured Europe and also visit different places in India every year. In short, we enjoy travelling. We appreciate/respect other people's culture, languages, etc. We have inter-caste, inter-religion and inter-provincial marriages in our families; also divorces and re-marriages.
My daughter did her Cambridge O'levels from the middle-east with all A's, completed her B.Sc. from U of Toronto (Chemistry)and her B.Ed. from University of Ottawa. She completed her M.Ed. from U of Toronto this year.
She is a high-school science teacher specializing in chemistry and biology. She is fluent in English, French and Bengali, can manage Hindi and Arabic. She learned Indian Classical dance for 10 years and classical music for 3 years; loves good music from any country; enjoys reading good English literature; loves to travel and trek; loves to watch movies from a variety of genres and is a good swimmer. She has adjusted very well wherever we have lived, with both the people and with the situation.
My daughter will pursue her career.
More importantly, she would like to know the person for some time before going for a serious relationship like marraige.
She can tell you more about herself once she knows you. Although I am writing on behalf of her but she will take the final decision.
ABOUT THE FAMILY:
She has one younger brother (my son) who is identified as a 'gifted' student in Canada;completed his Master's in Urban Develpoment from Amsterdam University, Holland, after his Bachelor's degree from Toronto in Appled Geography. He plays the piano.
Her Father: M.Tech.(Applied Physics-gold medalist) worked as an electrical engineer in GEC- Calcutta, then in the UAE and is now working in an American computer company in Canada. Her mother is M.Tech (electrical),who taught Physics in Calcutta,worked as an accountant in the UAE and is currently a school teacher in Canada .
Bride's father's side- originally from East Bengal (Faridpur to be precise) but 'probashi bangali'. Grandpa (bride's father's dad) retired as plant manager of Bird Company KFS in Kumardhubi. He was born in Faridpur but brought up in Benaras and educated in BHU-Benaras. He was a respected sportsman in Bihar. After retirement he worked as consultant/manager in a refractory in Jeddah, Saudi Arabia. Grandma (father's side) - born & brought up in Dhanbad (originally from east bengal).
Bride's mother's side: West Bengal- from Calcutta. Grandpa (bride's mother's Pa) was a lawyer and served as Councillor,JP and Alderman of Calcutta Corporation long time ago(when money and politics were definitely not part and parcel of Calcutta Corporation). Among other social works, he started/built a cricket club along with his younger brother for neighbourhood boys that later on became (and still is) a second division cricket club of Calcutta.
Grandma (mother's side) - also from West Bengal.
Grandparents (both sides) are no more. I feel my maternal Uncle (not bride's) needs to be mentioned here - late Biren Roy of Behala.
THE FUTURE:
My daughter's future plan is to teach in different countries of the world as situations/opportunities allow and settle down in India later in life or may settle in USA/Canada - just a plan at this point - may decide to settle in a totally different country if she so chooses to (for her partner and children)- all her decision.
Interested in an educated, liberal minded boy from educated, cultured family; should respect other people's feelings, wants and wishes; non-smoker please; limited social drinking is acceptable.
