Indian man shares why he prefers living in Canada. Internet reacts to viral video
Sahil Narang shared this video on Instagram
The video has over 2,74,000 views so far
An Indian-origin man living in Canada for over three years has shared a video explaining why he prefers living in the country. The video has now gone viral on social media.
In an Instagram video titled 'Why I love living in this country," Sahil Narang lists reasons he isn't ready to leave Canada. The clip has garnered over 2,74,000 views so far.
The text overlay in the video reads: 'Why I live in Canada'. It begins with Sahil saying, 'Things I absolutely love about living in Canada, and these are the main reasons I'm still not ready to leave.'
Narang first explains that every state in Canada has a minimum wage, regardless of the type of work you do. 'Trust me, if you're talented and have experience in a good field, you can end up earning a lot of money here,' he adds.
He then explains how people in Canada follow rules without being forced, regardless of their status. They also maintain queues, whether it's for catching a bus or getting food at a restaurant.
His third reason seems more personal; he calls Canada 'the most beautiful country in the world.' 'The government does so much for its residents, from arranging festivals to making you feel at home,' he says, adding, 'This country doesn't stop for anyone. If you're doing well and earning well, you will see your best days here.'

Hotels raise stakes on pandemic-era bets to ramp up revenue playbook
Hotel chains are raising their bets on new businesses started during the pandemic-era, with some even emerging as critical revenue generators. Independence Day 2025 Before Trump, British used tariffs to kill Indian textile Bank of Azad Hind: When Netaji gave India its own currency Swadeshi 2.0: India is no longer just a market, it's a maker From home delivery of food to boutique stays, and retailing sleep essentials, hotel chains had entered into diverse segments to sustain their businesses amid severe disruptions caused by the pandemic. Besides Tree of Life and a reimagined Ginger brand, Indian Hotels Company 's (IHCL's) new business vertical also includes home stay brand ama Stays & Trails and Qmin. Initially launched as a gourmet food delivery app during Covid-19, Qmin has since transformed into a multiformat concept. Deepika Rao, executive vice president of new businesses and hotel openings at IHCL said Qmin, with its multiformat presence across all-day-diners at Ginger hotels, lifestyle cafes, food pods and QSR outlets at airports has over 90 outlets, while ama Stays & Trails will scale to over 500 bungalows in the next few years from over 300 currently. "Under Accelerate 2030, IHCL's five-year strategy road map, the new business vertical is set to deliver a revenue CAGR of over 30%," she said. Launched in 2021, ITC Hotels' Gourmet Couch started out as a means to bring the hotel chain's signature dining experiences to homes. Today, Gourmet Couch is available through the ITC Hotels App, as well as popular food delivery apps across locations such as Delhi NCR, Agra, Jaipur, Kolkata, Hyderabad, Bhubaneswar, Guntur, Mumbai, Bengaluru and Ahmedabad. ITC Hotels also launched a boutique hotel brand Storii, which currently has seven operating properties across Goa, Kolkata, Manali, Solan, Dharamshala and Jaisalmer. In 2021, it also launched the first ITC Hotels Sleeep boutique at New Delhi's ITC Maurya, offering a collection of sleep essentials. These boutiques have since expanded to cities such as Bengaluru, Chennai, Hyderabad, and Kolkata. "These innovations are not just pandemic stop-gaps; they have expanded our reach, and created new ways to engage with guests," said a spokesperson for ITC Hotels. Radisson Hotel Group launched Radisson Individuals during the pandemic. The segment offers independent hotels the ability to retain their own character while gaining access to Radisson Hotel Group's distribution reach and loyalty programme. Nikhil Sharma, MD and COO, South Asia, at the chain said this model has seen strong interest from hotel owners, with 20 hotels currently operational across locations such as Imphal, Kasauli, Dhanbad, Yavatmal, Jim Corbett, Udaipur, Gopalpur, Katra, and Navsari. "We are also launching in locations such as Bhubaneswar, Gwalior, and Shirdi," he added. The past five years have been one of the most transformative in modern hotel history, said Nandivardhan Jain, founder and CEO of Noesis Capital Advisors. He said hotel chains have been forced to rethink their strategies to cope with factors such as the Covid-19 impact, structural shifts in traveller demographics and booking behaviour. "The result has been an accelerated introduction of new hotel formats that are fundamentally altering the economics of hotel development and operations," said Jain. "The boutique segment has moved from the periphery to a central growth pillar for many chains. Smaller inventory footprints (20-80 keys), and immersive local positioning have enabled chains to tap into a segment that delivers higher yield and faster recovery cycles than conventional upscale brands," he added.

South Korea Is Offering A Workation Visa For Indians But There's A Catch
If you have ever dreamed of sipping coffee in Seoul while sending emails to your boss back in India, South Korea's F-1-D Workation Visa - also called the Digital Nomad Visa - might just be your ticket. Launched on 1 January 2024, as a pilot project, this visa allows remote workers to live in South Korea for up to two years while working for companies based outside the country. The catch? It's not for everyone - the eligibility rules and income requirements are strict. But if you meet them, you could spend the next year (or two) working from the Land of the Morning Calm. The Digital Nomad Visa The F-1-D visa is issued for 1 year initially and can be extended once for another year, allowing a maximum stay of 2 years. The processing time is around 10-15 days, although in some cases it can take a little longer. Applicants need to show an annual income exceeding USD 66,000 (roughly Rs 58 lakh) - which is about twice South Korea's per capita Gross National Income. The Eligibility To apply for the digital nomad visa, you've to be: Be at least 18 years old Have at least 1 year of experience in your current industry Be employed by a company outside South Korea or own an overseas business Only work remotely - you cannot take up employment with a South Korean company or do profit-making activities in the country Have your employer's approval to work remotely from overseas Medical insurance is mandatory and must cover at least Rs 83 lakh for medical treatment and repatriation. The cover must be valid for your entire visa period. Documents Needed For Indian Applicants If you are applying from India, you'll need: Visa application form (Form No. 17) with passport photo Passport with at least 6 months validity Employment verification letter stating your role is remote, for at least 3 months in South Korea Proof of income - at least two of the following: employment certificate, salary slips, 3 months' bank statements, Income Tax Return, or pay stubs Indian criminal record certificate (issued within 6 months, apostilled or notarised by the Korean Embassy) Criminal records from any other country you've lived in for 1+ years in the past 5 years Medical insurance certificate meeting the coverage criteria Where And How To Apply Indians can apply at South Korean embassies or consulates in New Delhi, Mumbai, Chennai, or Kolkata. If you are already in South Korea on a tourist visa (B-1, B-2, or C-3), you can apply at local immigration offices. Here's a step-by-step process: 1. Check eligibility - income, age, work type, and experience 2. Gather and translate documents into English or Korean; apostille Indian documents 3. Schedule an appointment at the nearest Korean embassy/consulate (some accept walk-ins) 4. Submit the application with the visa fee (around USD 45) - your passport will be held during processing 5. Wait for processing (10-15 days, no express service) 6. Once approved, enter South Korea within the visa validity and apply for an Alien Registration Card (ARC) within 90 days Btw, spouses and children under 18 can join you. You'll need marriage and birth certificates (apostilled if issued outside Korea) along with company or school letters confirming work or leave arrangements. Remember, The F-1-D visa does not lead to permanent residency in South Korea. Once your 2-year period ends, you must leave or switch to another eligible visa category. Bottomline For well-earning Indian professionals and entrepreneurs who want to experience life in South Korea without giving up their existing jobs, the Workation Visa is a golden opportunity. The high income threshold will keep it exclusive, but for those who qualify, it's a chance to blend work and travel in one of Asia's most dynamic destinations.

Why the 260-year-old Parisian perfume house Creed prefers to source jasmine from India
The Paris-based House of Creed recently opened its first flagship boutique in India at The Chanakya, New Delhi, bringing over two-and-a-half centuries of fragrance mastery to the discerning Indian market. The flagship store offers Creed's most popular perfumes, including the Aventus, Silver Mountain Water, and Green Irish Tweed, alongside the Aventus for Her, among others. In an interview with Lounge, Giles Gordon, the brand's chief marketing officer, talks about the reason behind selecting Delhi as the location for the flagship store, why they prefer to source jasmine and tuberose from India, and what makes a good perfume. Edited excerpts: What made you select Delhi? Delhi represents India's most refined and cosmopolitan luxury landscape, making it the natural choice for Creed's inaugural flagship boutique. After over 260 years of mastery rooted in London's legacy, we sought a location that reflects our devotion to cultural richness. India already has an array of luxury fragrance brands—Gucci and Prada Beauty being the recent additions. How do you plan to face off the competitors? The growth of global fragrance houses in India signals a shift towards more refined preferences, and that's exactly where Creed thrives. Each fragrance is hand-weighed, blended, and matured in our maison in France; a process rooted in human skill. We offer a tangible connection to centuries of perfumery expertise that resonates with India's most perceptive consumers. Earlier this year, you launched a snow-inspired perfume. Could you talk about the idea behind that smell? Silver Mountain Water, which launched in 1995, remains one of our most iconic creations. The idea came from the beauty of the Swiss Alps, capturing that crisp, invigorating moment of breathing in mountain air with glacial streams running below. It opens with a burst of bergamot and blackcurrant, flows into tea and airy accords, and finishes on soft sandalwood and musk. Even the bottle, with its white base and silver cap, brings that alpine vision to life. India has a long history in perfume making. Has the country inspired the House of Creed to create a perfume? Do you source any raw materials from here? Absolutely. Our perfumers travel the world in search of the finest raw materials, and India plays an essential role in that journey. We source some of our most precious notes, like jasmine and tuberose, from India. They're not just ingredients, they're living traditions that continue to inspire our creations. What's Creed's business vision for India? India plays a key role in our global story, not just as a market but as a cultural partnership. The country's deep-rooted respect for tradition aligns seamlessly with Creed's ethos. Across our presence in nearly 80 countries, we've seen India's interest grow steadily. From London to Dubai, Indian consumers are stepping into niche luxury with curiosity and confidence. Our digital traction confirmed the appetite, and now we're creating an immersive, in-person experience that invites people to explore what sets artisanal fragrance apart. How have people's tastes evolved over the years when it comes to scents? Today, people aren't simply choosing a fragrance to follow trends. They're looking for something that feels like them. Great perfumery isn't about fitting in; it's about discovering what feels truly your own. What's a good perfume according to you? A good perfume starts with exceptional ingredients and the kind of hands-on craftsmanship that gives it soul. It should linger beautifully, tell a story, and become a part of how you express yourself. A great fragrance isn't just something you wear, it's something that stays with you, shapes your presence, and leaves a quiet impression long after you've gone. Which perfume do you wear? Aventus is the one I find myself returning to. It strikes that rare balance between bold and elegant. It opens bright and fresh, then settles into something warm, smoky, and quietly powerful.
