India is actually one of the world’s most linguistically diverse countries - in addition to Hindi and English, hundreds of other languages are spoken, including, in a small corner of northern India, the Punjabi language. The Punjabi people live spread across both India and Pakistan and have a rich and beautiful culture with incredible food, music, and religion. And here in New York City if you head to Punjab Avenue in Queens you’ll find a small but thriving community of Punjabis, particularly Punjabi Sikhs but also Hindus, Muslims, and Christians as well. So this week I brushed up on my Punjabi and headed out there to chat with the locals, who are wonderfully encouraging when it comes to learning their language. What an experience speaking Punjabi as a foreigner!

Seeing those smiles from the 3 Punjabi men on the street, lit up my day:) the world is amazing, we are all brothers and sisters. I pray we someday realize this truth

Maybe he knows just some sentences, but he's still able to comunicate and understand when they talk back to him, which is something you cannot define in advance. Props to him

Can we talk about how you’re not just respecting the language and the people but you’re also supporting small businesses and I love this we all need to make the effort he does🙌🏽

The love you get from peoples by knowing their language is amazing. I think it’s the highest respect that you can offer to another culture.

I love how he not only learns about all the cultures he visits and learns the languages of but also supports businesses run by the people speaking those languages

I am puzzled by the many concerns expressed about him eating Samosa’s. You don’t find it amazing that he speaks your language?? This guy is phenomenal! I have lived a long time and never encountered anyone who could converse in so many languages. His laugh is so disarming and his modesty is clearly evident. What an awesome ambassador for America. What’s not to love. xiaoman, you are a delight to watch! You have been given a great gift, keep it up.
