How To Call India From The USA With MyLine
India and USA are two countries with deep-rooted ties. Not just because they were both former British colonies or the billions worth of goods exchanged between them yearly. Indo-Americans or Americans with Indian roots also comprise 1.3% of the entire US population making them the third largest ethnic group in the country.
It’s therefore not surprising that several elements of the Indian culture have seeped into popular American culture over the years. Traditional Indian foods such as the curry, roti, biryani, paneer and tandoori dishes have found their way into both the posh restaurants and back alley food carts in New York. Yoga, a discipline which originated in ancient India, is now a very popular form of physical exercise in the west.
Many highly educated Indians are also occupying top executive positions in multinational companies. You can likewise see them working white collar jobs, supervising hospitals, teaching in Ivy League universities and even own some promising start-ups in Silicon Valley. A lot of Indians have also been given recognitions by various American institutions for their contributions in their respective fields.
Close family ties is one of the foundations of the Indian culture. Extended families living in one roof is the norm for most Indian communities. In fact, the most common route for Indians migrating to the US is through family sponsorship. Those who cannot bring their families with them strive to keep constant communication with their loved ones back home.
This is why being able to call home without breaking the bank means a lot to Indian immigrants in the US. If they could just talk to their families on the phone for hours without having to worry about phone bills going through the roof.
