I am Brazilian, I live in Curitiba, one of the best cities in South America, but my dream is to live in India, it is a country that is growing a lot, with a beautiful culture, it is a unique country, I am saddened by the fact that many Indians want to move to other countries like USA and UK, India has a lot of potential, and unfortunately many young people move to the West, I hope that in the future this will not happen, as it is sad to see brilliant Indian minds going to grow other countries, as they could strengthen their own country.
One of the biggest reason y highly qualified Indians choose to get employed in other developed countries is because of wage differences however after earning a certain amount of expirience those ppl return back in order to work in a more practicle and expirenced way in thier own nation so as to make things more accountable
Too many people, too little space. Also, India isnt just a piece of land, its the soul of the people who come from it. So while it might confuse people why do Indians choose to move around, Indians dont feel its that big a deal because India moves around with them wherever they go. They will establish a home like their homeland anywhere they go. We have been taught that “vasudhaiva kutumbakam” which translates to, “ the world itself is your family”. Cheers!
Let me explain you, everyone in this world are explorer, each one want to know about new things, new experiences, visit new places, even Elon Musk and nasa and others want to explore new planets and new places, Thus Indians also want the better life and better experiences.
Thank you so much for this oppprtunity GNI and Tedx. I love spreading the beauty of India and this was a fantastic experience. Beyond grateful to share my ideas and hope it inspires more people to believe in India.
Wow... from doing yoga practice in kochi to Ted Talks. 😃 It's nice to see you grow. I subscribed back when you posted one of the second trip which was in English. P.S. Still want you to see try misal paav
Your vlogs are such an amazing things that happens in my social life. Life is mesmerizing watching a foreigner adapting more than an Indian. Love you for everything and yes happy life ahead here in India 🤩🤩😘
At last here it is ! I was wondering why you hadn’t posted your Tedx talk. As usual you express and articulate the key points really well.. though having watched all your vlogs I felt there were a couple of things you missed or could have re-phrased or expressed with some clarification that would have made it even more meaningful for the audience you were speaking to, because from your videos there is so much more that you have understood that many haven’t. Anyway still, really good talk. Congratulations!! Once again loved the video you posted yesterday and I have mentioned it there, it’s one of the best vlogs.
Hi Ivana, I am your very old subscriber and a big fan of yours , I have seen you from the very beginning of your vlog when you started traveling to india and iam so happy for you for your success and growth. Still more to see from you and to come more goodies in your pocket . May God bless you more success and love💕💕💕💕 and may your dream comes true, iam really feeling so happy and proud of you .Congratulations dear❤💕💕💕💕💕💕💕Take care and stay happy as you alwys are. We love to see you the way you are. Looking forward to see more 💕💕💕💕💕
Certain Indians speak like American and British whilst settling in abroad... yet she is not completely Indian in pronunciation but there are similarities in certain words.. and Welsh people (British) tend to enunciate like Indians as well!
I was recently in India - Dec 2019- and share your view of India. After living in Cananda for about 50 years I have learnt to work around the clock. It took me about 3 days to calm down. There is something in the air or culture that make you feel accepted and connected. I was born in an Indian family in East Africa but when I reach India it is like feeling at home. I wrote my story in a novel called Love in the Empire. You learn in the west to look at India from western eyes and look superficially at the dust, heat, roads, traffic and not look beyond to history and culture and family. With changing economy India will have both the tidiness of the west and the luxuries and the bonds of the people. Western media better take note. Jay Chauhan
I am an Indocanadian & I miss India so miserably. Just like what you said it is work, work , work & work that happens in Canada & by the end of the day it is just paying bills and losing the essence & value of one's life.
You can take an Indian out of India but never India out of an Indian.People come to India to find oneself .Glad that you have found content,peace and harmony.
Yes after last six years of me pushing myself away from my heritage and culture and getting west washed. My beautiful mother (India) has pulled me right back in. I am learning so much about it now and feel so happy that I am a part of it.
Only a good soul can fall in Love with a Holy, secular, diverse,generous,mystic,Atithi Dev Bhava....... n so on beautiful country n it’s None other but INDIA
Hi Ivana..sitting here sobbing in Germany as I discovered your channel while waiting for my new business visa to get ready....can't wait to get back home💗. I have been livinig in India for 15 years now and loved every second....I love the work you do....its time to share a view of colorful bubbling happiness and diversiy with the world... everything you say in your TEDtalk could be from the bottom of my soul...I see India the same way... once I'm back I'll invite you to Pondicherry...for a nice French breakfast at Bread n Chocolate (with even better croissants than Baker Street 🤫) with love to India🧡🤍💚
Madam do visit Forts in Maharashtra,there are 350+ of them. Pune City is called as the Oxford of the east,and it has also historical importance. Also there are palaces in Kolhapur,and temples. Kolhapur was once wrestling hub in the Indian subcontinent. You should surely visit.
Wouuw, zo trots! I'm sure the Indian people are so happy to have someone like you sharing the beauty of India with the world. Zozozo gaaf dat je dit hebt gedaan! En you have balls girl, zoveel risky en enge keuzes gemaakt en look where you are now! Echt inspirerend!!
She basically is more Indian than Indians and described India better than Indians.Also kinda shame for few Indians who are not able to see what she saw in India.Hats off girl!
Thanks You are amazing, And you are the first traveler who told me about my country ( in other words in my life you are the first foreigner + traveler from who I got a lot of informations & knowledge and I'm feeling very amazing things about my country ). Thank you
Living abroad opens up your mind beyond expectations. I find huge cultural difference, which helps me to pick the best of East and West and imbibe them within
I personally am so glad that she visited South India. Most foreigners visiting only go to North India, but South India has just as much if not more to offer. Happy for you, Ivana. 😄
Real Indian culture is in South India. North India occupied by the Greek and later portuguese in Goa and spread most of the Northern part. South India a different race came known as Dravidians who had migrated from Messopotamia. South Indian languages root is Sanskrit except Tamil. I am from India worked in Japan after Ph.D from Tokyo University as a Japan govt scholar. I came to US as a post doctoral and later obtained another doctorate in Engineering from UC Berkeley. Worked as a scientist for 27 years now retired live in Charlotte but visits India every six months for a month. I have many relatives in India Chennai and Hyderabad.
Ivana, India is not a destination, it is a journey. Life and the truths of life can be seen,. Every aspect of humaity is seen, from the basic to the modern, but you will see humanity, and the love of living. Humility, and respect is part of the culture. I thank you for showing India so beautifully. Thank you.
You go girl... this is just 1 of many achievements that ur gonna receive in ur life,.. this is because not only you are a great vlogger but ur an amazing person as well. Having known u from being ur fan to ur friend you have been an inspiration throughout for me. From attending ur meet up to now planning outings with you, I have had the opportunity to know you even more and see an amazing and beautiful person not just outside but from ur heart as well. I’m sure u have that Midas touch, cause whoever u meet u just inspire them.,. More power to you girl. U are the best.😘
Kinjal mehta thanks for showing her true indian hospitality,our indian culture is still alive because of people like you and your family,just continue the good work.
Can you please help me out. I am from UP and I wanna go out and connect with people from different countries while making a few bucks. Teaching hindi to foreigners have always sounded like "the" thing to me. Wanna really give it a go. Would be so grateful to have some guidance on how to actually do it.
@@maheshgokhale2747 I am not disrespecting other countries culture & tradition, but being in India you experience something different that cannot be quantity.
macdonald tramp : let’s not generalise, as all students of a class gets same lesson but each student is different individual & scores differently in different subjects. You cant expect expect everyone to behave same. People visiting Malls & involved in gathering material comfort are generally western educated staying in big cities. Go to Indian village & you’ll see real kind harted warm people
@macdonald tramp Every country has their pros and cons! If India is in poverty then there are many millionaire who are from India! Infact Asia's Richest man is Indian! Not even a single country is cent percent perfect! Every person and creatures has its own goods and bad
You nailed it Ivaana akka!! 😻 This was one of best TED talk i have listened to ! It's so inspiring yet grounded. Applause for this feather on your hat ❤🌻👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
Dear Ivana, please do try to see and show the North Eastern States of India which is just like India, underrated, unknown and often neglected. I am from Guwahati, Assam BTW. Take care...
Sometimes it feel really bad that NE needs to be shown by foreigners.. no offence but we Indians love to see our country through their eyes..being a traveller and North east lover, I do believe these parts will get their due soon in tourism map of India..I think the perception has changed a lot in last 7 -8 years..they do not only hold the scenic beauty but boast of the most warm and good hearted people of India.. respect brother.. please welcome people from other parts in the same way as you will love to lay down the red carpet for other nationalities..thanks..BTW she is doing a good job !!
As a keralite ,I know that our beautiful northeast is neglected. But this govt under modi is bringing some changes.I am also excited and I started a FB page to make other Indians know more about northeast. Slowly the gap will fade away bro. Have a good hope.We are also with u.
Your experience makes me remind of the peace I felt when I took the train from Belgrade to Novi sad and the slowed down no stress bohemian lifestyle! Amsterdam may be different, but Serbia and India share a lot of values and culture 😇
@@IvanaPerkovicOfficial my Serbian friends and myself are planning to come to India-Bangalore and Kerala in October..so if you are around we would love to meet you!
This princess takes the heart of all Indians with such a respect to our country.... Having such a beautiful heart is a rare.... The level of interest u generate while u speak is incredible by making each small thing valuable.... And ur sudden smile gives an Excellent boost to ur journey speech ....
Very genuinely spoken. I was borne in India and been living in the US for last 30 years. You made me cry. I wish I could go back forever. God bless you.
I feel you’re describing my life story to be honest. I’ve lived in india as a kid for 10 years but my parents made me move to London due to better career opportunities. I’ve been here 11 years and can’t wait to go back to india in 2 years (that’s when I’ll qualify as a solicitor here). Thank you! Just shared this on my family group! X
Ivana never new this side of your personality...you are the best speaker on stage so much so you can win a election of President...n your philosophy of curiosity over fear is a life changer for me..
I loved every single word of yours and agree as well. I am an mbbs student so a future doctor and while i was preparing for my medical college i always thought to move out to usa. But as my mind grew as i started seeing india for what it is i began realising how blessed i am. Yes my parents are strict but because of them i am something today that i couldn't even dream of. Yes our politicians are corrupt and because of them we are fighting hard to make things right. I am glad to say i am happy with my choice. I am so proud to see you representing our country and it's culture. And i promise you the next generation will see an India which is technologically unsurpassable, culturally strong, economically stable and militarily peacefull. I never write long comments but your kind words compelled me to.. Wish you a very very happy and peaceful future. Let's all contribute to make this beautiful country great again. 🙏
@@IvanaPerkovicOfficial No, thank you; you are doing an awesome job keep it up. Never loose hope because of some bitter experiences which i am sure are plenty but fight with us in making India what we dream it to be.🙏
The though of choosing curiosity over fear is such an amazing and powerful thought that this could help everyone applying this in their real life survive and grow in any situation.
Ivana, you are an amazing person and such an inspiration to the rising youth of India. Well not just for young people but for us , the older generation as well! Keep it up and be happy. Bless you.
@@dumdumbiryani wrong interpretation She stayed in India for temporary period We person living in urban area goes to rural area ( grandparents or parents ).. Tht person stays in rural India temporarily.. Again he/she is back to urban area.. She came to India ( rural area ) went back to Amsterdam ( urban area ) - Indians R certainly emotional.. She earned respect, money & made to TedX talk just by travelling in India n sharing her experience.. Tht also shows India seeking western validations
Amazing speech by the lady .. Respect your opinions, value and kind advice .. Loads of love, grace, happiness and prosperity to you dear Ivana.. 👏🏻🙏🏻🌸🌹🌺🤗
Trust me, you give the best explanation and respect About Indian Culture and Traditions💗 am so very proud of you, and Am proud to be an Indian 😍♥️ Thank you for Showcasing our Glorious India.. ♥️ Pyaar from India and to all other countries too🥰💗
I feel proud that I'm Indian And I really like when other ppl talk abt India India is a best country in the world. Our culture teach us humanity, gratitude and many more things. Thanks you ❤ 🇮🇳
Thank you for making me love my country more. Till so far I was thinking my country is best. But after my travel to many places over world I still hold it to be true
Felt amazing looking at her view about India, coming all the way from Amsterdam leaving probably a settled life and a very good talk about the diversity, culture and the points she mentioned about the people here in India like being so humble, grounded and a funny point but fact a new language for every 100kms. This speaks how much culturally diverse India is.
She's the best. Ivana ❤️❤️ She's a pure soul . With a heart of gold. N I'm not telling all this by her looks n by her country from where she belongs. I'm telling this from her vlogs From her vlogs u get a different kinda positive vibe which gives u good vibes for the whole day. P.s in short. ONE IVANA VIDEO A DAY KEEPS THE BAD VIBES AWAY ❤️❤️❤️❤️
before I believe that Indian people did not change their mindset but now I believed if you find yourself. you can change anything the girl is a really humble person and she comes to foreigners country to India that's a very proud moment for Indian people ...
Nice to watch your video on the eve of India's Republic Day celebrations 2021 , proud to be born and be an Indian , but most Indians don't know it's value but the moment they leave India , I guess they start missing it ,love India with everything good and wrong in it , best wishes from India

MISHUKA MAITI Couldn't be happier for your support! Thank you so much!
Thank You Ivana for bringing in fresh view of India

Prashant Thank you so much!
A proud follower of Ivana 🙌 ❣️
So proud of you Paneer Princess
I loved every single word of yours and agree as well. I am an mbbs student so a future doctor and while i was preparing for my medical college i always thought to move out to usa. But as my mind grew as i started seeing india for what it is i began realising how blessed i am. Yes my parents are strict but because of them i am something today that i couldn't even dream of. Yes our politicians are corrupt and because of them we are fighting hard to make things right. I am glad to say i am happy with my choice. I am so proud to see you representing our country and it's culture. And i promise you the next generation will see an India which is technologically unsurpassable, culturally strong, economically stable and militarily peacefull. I never write long comments but your kind words compelled me to.. Wish you a very very happy and peaceful future. Let's all contribute to make this beautiful country great again. 🙏
ZombieVampire What a beautiful comment! Thank you so much for your kind words and for choosing India
@@IvanaPerkovicOfficial No, thank you; you are doing an awesome job keep it up. Never loose hope because of some bitter experiences which i am sure are plenty but fight with us in making India what we dream it to be.🙏
My country needs more brave daughters like you
Stay there and make a difference. Trust me. Money is not everything in life.
The though of choosing curiosity over fear is such an amazing and powerful thought that this could help everyone applying this in their real life survive and grow in any situation.
Very Nice Narrative. Proud to be Indian. The Best phrase is CURIOSITY over FEAR
Humble, Kindness & Family value is greatest in INDIA we know ♥️😊
Way to go Ivana ! Your videos are so inspiring ! Wishing you only the best !
Anish Bendre Thank you so much!

Something actually more important than Happiness. I found Peace and Contentment.
These are Golden words Ivana.

manjit bakhshi Thank you so so much!
Iv is the best! ❤️
Man Cave Yay thank you bro!!!!
Leaving amsterdam for india that's unbelievable.
What do u mean?
@@dumdumbiryani wrong interpretation
She stayed in India for temporary period
We person living in urban area goes to rural area ( grandparents or parents ).. Tht person stays in rural India temporarily.. Again he/she is back to urban area.. She came to India ( rural area ) went back to Amsterdam ( urban area ) - Indians R certainly emotional.. She earned respect, money & made to TedX talk just by travelling in India n sharing her experience.. Tht also shows India seeking western validations
@@desiintrovert6497 She is living in India since past 2 years. She has mentioned that in one of her videos.
Even Amsterdam is really beautiful I have experienced it during my living in Netherland.
Amazing speech by the lady .. Respect your opinions, value and kind advice .. Loads of love, grace, happiness and prosperity to you dear Ivana.. 👏🏻🙏🏻🌸🌹🌺🤗

Thank you for making me love my country more. Till so far I was thinking my country is best. But after my travel to many places over world I still hold it to be true
Love this girl! So proud of her!
Felt amazing looking at her view about India, coming all the way from Amsterdam leaving probably a settled life and a very good talk about the diversity, culture and the points she mentioned about the people here in India like being so humble, grounded and a funny point but fact a new language for every 100kms. This speaks how much culturally diverse India is.
Great that you are in India since 2017... 👌 👌 👌 👌 👌 👌
Very nice & interesting talk. Very happy to hear your experiences & impressions of India 🇮🇳
Thanks for sharing your amazing experiences and thoughts for Bharat. 💕💕💕
being happy is difficult one... But travels heels the pain of soul. Can't say in words, only explore.. Go on guys..
She's the best.
Ivana ❤️❤️
She's a pure soul .
With a heart of gold.
N I'm not telling all this by her looks n by her country from where she belongs.
I'm telling this from her vlogs
From her vlogs u get a different kinda positive vibe which gives u good vibes for the whole day.
P.s in short. ONE IVANA VIDEO A DAY
KEEPS THE BAD VIBES AWAY ❤️❤️❤️❤️
before I believe that Indian people did not change their mindset but now I believed if you find yourself. you can change anything the girl is a really humble person and she comes to foreigners country to India that's a very proud moment for Indian people ...

Nice to watch your video on the eve of India's Republic Day celebrations 2021 , proud to be born and be an Indian , but most Indians don't know it's value but the moment they leave India , I guess they start missing it ,love India with everything good and wrong in it , best wishes from India
