After 20 Years in Germany... He Still Can't Decide Between India and Germany

from Desi Return Diaries

After spending nearly 20 years in Germany, Neeraj reflects on a question many NRIs eventually face: 👉 Was moving abroad worth it? 👉 What does success mean after 20 years? 👉 And if he could start all over again, what would he do differently? In this candid conversation, Neeraj shares his journey from a small town in India to building a life in Germany. We discuss the realities of living abroad, the challenges of belonging to two countries, why some NRIs struggle after moving back to India, and the factors people should carefully consider before making a life-changing decision. Whether you're a student planning to move abroad, an NRI considering a return to India, or someone trying to decide where "home" really is, this episode offers valuable insights and lessons from two decades of experience. 🔗 Connect with Neeraj on LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/neeraj-kumar-11852719/
