July 2023 Archive – Must‑Read Stories on Life, Travel & Politics
Welcome to the July 2023 archive of India Job Guide. In just one month we covered a wide range of topics that matter to Indian readers – from moving overseas and dealing with cultural shifts, to how the world sees Indian travelers, and even a surprising phone call involving Trump, Modi and Imran Khan. Below is a quick run‑through of the three posts that sparked the most conversation. Grab a cup of chai and see what you might have missed.
Life Abroad: Indian Experience in New Zealand
New Zealand’s stunning scenery and friendly vibe attract many Indian expats, but the reality on the ground is a mix of excitement and adjustment. The post “What is it like for an Indian to live in New Zealand?” breaks down everyday life: the laid‑back Kiwi culture, the growing number of Indian grocery stores, and the challenge of navigating a new slang‑heavy English. Readers learn how to blend Indian traditions with local customs, from cooking familiar dishes in a shared kitchen to joining community events that celebrate both cultures. The article also offers practical tips on finding affordable housing and settling into the job market, making the transition smoother for anyone planning the move.
Travel Talk: How Airlines See Indian Passengers
Ever wondered what flight crews think when they see a full cabin of Indian travelers? The July post “What do airlines and airport crews think of Indian passengers?” shares real interviews with pilots, cabin staff, and ground crew. The consensus is mostly positive – crews praise Indian passengers for their politeness, patience, and respect for safety rules. However, language barriers and specific dietary needs sometimes cause hiccups. The article suggests simple steps for Indian travelers: learn a few key English phrases, inform the airline about special meals well in advance, and keep a friendly attitude. These small actions can turn a routine flight into a smoother experience for everyone.
The third story takes a political turn. “Trump dials PM Modi who calls out Imran – India News?” covers a recent phone conversation that caught headlines. Former US President Donald Trump reached out to Prime Minister Narendra Modi, and during the call Modi reportedly raised concerns about Pakistan’s Prime Minister Imran Khan. While the exact details remain confidential, the post highlights how such high‑level talks can influence regional dynamics and affect everyday Indians. It also explains why monitoring these diplomatic exchanges matters for job seekers, especially those eyeing multinational firms or positions that involve cross‑border projects.
All three posts reflect the core mission of India Job Guide: give Indians practical insights that help them succeed at work, travel, and life abroad. Whether you’re packing your bags for Auckland, booking a flight to Delhi, or following global politics to gauge future market trends, the archive gives you bite‑size, actionable information.

They love the warmth and friendly nature of Indian passengers, but also express the need for better communication to improve the overall experience.
