Dear Pakistan
Rosanne Hawke
I knew I was in Australia when I noticed all the legs—men’s legs! I never thought there could be so many variations: short, long, muscled, knobbly-kneed.
Then there were the hairy ones …
Jaime Richards has spent most of her life in Pakistan and returning to Australia seems like another planet compared to the country she has left behind. Here in Australia, boys try to kiss her, men wear shorts and everyone says 'cool' all the time. How will she ever know the right things to say or do or wear? After all, this is meant to be her own culture.
This is a story of living beyond borders, and discovering the gift of adapting to new cultures, especially one’s own.
