About me, who am I?

I often find myself asking this question, and here is what i can answer so far...

I have given the name Gori Rani to myself when i started blogging, its a punjabi phrase meaning- gori referring to a girl with white skin and rani meaning a queen. My giving first name is Rebecca. I am from Scotland, in the United Kingdom. i am 21 years old and I am quite a spiritual person, who is willing to take risks by following my heart. 

I am in a loving Intercultural marriage with an indian man, who's given first name is Gautam. Gautam is from Punjab, India. 

Gautam and I, in india 2013

We have been married for 3 years on the 28th of January.
We have overcome HUGE obstacles in our marriage and we only ever come out stronger. we used to be in a long distance relationship which began January 2013 and finally ended on the 8th September 2014.

We used to be 5,000 miles apart

Currently I am working full time in an awesome job for the best boss ever which i am truly blessed to be doing. I may not look like the average phone repairer but Monday to Friday I work in a phone repair shop, repairing phones, selling phones and everything else that goes along with phones. I count it more as a hobby that I get paid for more than an actual job.

My future dream Job is to be a teacher. Unfortunately, this a dream I have to put on hold, as i am currently making memories and gaining life experience with my husband in Ireland. 

I originally moved to Ireland to be an Au Pair, and learn more about their visa requirements. My life in the uk was never going to work if I wanted a future with my husband, to be able to close the distance ion the uk I need to be working in a full time position with a genuine and good salary to be able to support Gautam, the british government's requirements for a spouse visa were way out of reach of what I was earning as a student on minimum wage. so I decided to take a risk and move to Ireland. After a few months when I had researched the different laws and Ireland's immigration system gautam moved over and our long distance had ended, and our life began.
