I was friends with people based on who they were as people and if we clicked and got along- not what they looked like. My children are pretty lucky to be able to be a part of a complete cultural mosaic. Can you speak to your thoughts about how being a South Asian woman in mainstream media makes you a role model to young girls, especially those from the South Asian community?
NA: I hope that the path that I have chosen provides a form of inspiration for young South Asian girls and all young girls in general. I hope it allows them to envision a path that is separate from the stereotypical jobs that may have been ingrained in their brains. I am a strong believer of passion and that is how I ended up where I am today- and that is what I hope people can get a sense of if they listen to the show.
On the show I mention that I live in Surrey and I take pride in mentioning it. If there events in Surrey I love supporting and attending them. Speaking of- there are numerous charity organisations and events in Surrey and I try to be a part of as much as I can. What neighbourhood do you live in and what are the things you love most about it?
NA: I live in South Surrey and I love the small town cozy factor that comes along with this neighbourhood. We have a wonderful community and a wonderful mix of all different types of people. I love all the parks, the shops and restaurants- everything you need is here! DS: Can you describe a typical weekend in Surrey with your family? Where would you go? What would you do? Fish and Chips and the beach- how easy is that? More and more people are realising how amazing the city is and are bringing their families out this way.
Affordability, family orientated, culturally stimulating, nature at your fingertips- sounds pretty amazing to me. NA: Research suggests that Surrey is the future of the lower mainland — with the way things are going this theory seems pretty accurate! Toggle close. At Home. BC Day. Canada Day. Craft Beer. Crescent Beach. Family Day. Fathers Day. Get to know more about Nira and her recent hotel experience. My parents immigrated from India to Canada and raised our family on Vancouver Island.
I moved to Vancouver to pursue a career in the media and have hosted a morning radio show for many, many years. In my spare time, I love reading, scary movies, and talking about real-life stuff.
When I grew up in Nanaimo, the area had such a strong sense of community. I wanted my kids to have the same experience that I had growing up, so our family settled in South Surrey. We know our neighbours, have our favourite restaurants and go-to hot spots like Crescent Beach and local parks. It is a perfect community to raise our family. My life is constantly busy and on-the-go! The one thing I do is call him every single day when I get off work.
It is the only time we can communicate without some form of interruption from one of the kids! Their gin infused with Rocky Mountain Berries, it was so delicious in a cocktail. We also tried this amazing orange liquor called Peeled — it was fabulous.
Each course had a wine or cocktail pairing with a New Canadian dish. They had everything from fresh smoothies, to fresh fruit and eggs, and bagels, fresh smoked salmon and cream cheese. And of course, we indulged in a pastry or two with our coffees. Definitely the staff! The Civic Hotel team was so friendly and welcoming.
I also enjoyed the design concept throughout the hotel.
