  • Introduction (click play)
 

We are trying to connect with Minhaaj, a teacher in Pakistan, for a conversation and learn more about life in Pakistan.

Some answers through a skype chat from Minhaaj:

- Pakistani meals would be Karahi, Saag and Biryani

- and job opportunities are mostly in agriculture as its an agricultural country but its diversifying rapidly with industrial sector

- National Sport is Hockey (field) and I have played that for quite some time in school and college.

- hmm yep I've eaten American food and probably its not American itself by that'd be Pizza


- Well I do live near a major body of water called river Ravi.

- I have never visited US

- Well we have snow here up in North and I've seen it but never seen it falling. I was born in a desert.

- Well I had a cat as pet long time ago

- In Pakistan we have a lot of Animals, cows, goats, camels, deers and sheeps

- I am not sure if the question was 'what do people in Pakistan rear'? but if that's it they rear goats, sheeps and cows.

- economy really isn't stable with inflation on the run. Due to corrupt politics and terrorism its been even hard to keep it stable.

- Well I don't work fulltime. I am an educational consultant, just graduated from University with an MBA. I had a bachelors in English Literature before that.

- http://www.recipezaar.com/Mirs-Chicken-Karahi-128115
This is the recipe for a famous food called Chicken Karahi

- common names -- Ahmed. Anwar, Bashir, Nazeer, Kamran, Hira, Bushra

- Yep world is effecting us in terms of trade, culture and education

- That's about it Sheila. Most of the questions I have answered have a general answer for all. Most of them don't apply to me since I live in a metropolis which is more westernized.

Thank you, Minhaaj from the 7th grade!
