Arundeep only met her husband for two hours before they were married. Her father had placed a matrimonial advertisement in a newspaper and was already sifting through potential suitors when an Irish offer came through. Rajeshs parents had moved to Ireland in the 1970s and were now looking for an Indian bride for their son. Arundeep remembers how her father wrote a 500-word description of his daughter for the advertisement. It said, We have a girl of height 5ft with a fair complexion who has a good education and has been working for the last four years. Looking for a groom who matches with her qualifications and settled enough to support her. Usually the important thing with a marriage is that you belong to the same caste, but that was not so important for us, says Arundeep. What really mattered was he needed to be a vegetarian. Id never been to Ireland before. I had seen PS I Love You and knew it was a beautiful country, but I never thought: Im going to settle in Ireland. One of Arundeeps favourite things about living in Ireland is the weather. I know people here are always giving out about rain and dampness, but for me its gorgeous.
