California girl marries Indian farmer

Topics

Sunil

An American woman has ditched her comfortable, fun-loving Californian lifestyle to become a traditional housewife in rural India.

Adriana Peral, 41, took a leap of faith last August when she flew to the sub continent to meet a man young enough to be her son who she had fallen in love with over Facebook.

Within months she was married to Mukesh Kumar, 25, and had assumed her new role as a doting housewife - sweeping, cooking, cleaning and mucking in on the family's farm in an impoverished rural community in Haryana, India.

Transformation: Adriana Peral, seen at a nightclub in Merced, California, left, swapped parties for a quieter life in India after travelling to the subcontinent to marry a man she met on Facebook

It is a far cry from sun-kissed, body-conscious California, where Mrs Kumar enjoyed clubbing with friends, hitting the gym and shopping with daughter Lucy.

But despite the radical lifestyle change, she insists she is happier than ever.

The former receptionist at an acupuncture centre said: 'I love my life here with Mukesh - I wouldn't exchange it for anything in the world.'

In love: Adriana Peral, 41, and her husband Mukesh Kumar, 25, met and fell in love online

Rural: The pace of life in the remote rural village of Panipat, India, is a far cry from the modern homelife Adriana Peral, left behind in California

Home comforts: Adriana Peral makes some tea for her husband and in-laws, left, and sweeps the courtyard , right, at her house in a village in Panipat, India, during a typical day as a housewife

Mrs Kumar - who admits she had plenty of relationships back in the U.S., but had never found true love - began talking with Mukesh, sixteen years her junior, on the social networking site in February.

Over the next few months the pair grew closer, until one evening Mukesh unexpectedly called.

She explained: 'Mukesh declared his love to me right there and then on the phone. I didn't know how to react, and at first just laughed it off.

'But after we talked some more, I realised he was serious and so I said if you win my heart, I will consider marrying you. We spoke for around three more weeks and it was during that time I decided I wanted to move to India to be with him.'

Love conquers all.

I wish them all the best. Po mukesh will be so heart broken if she leaves. Then again Mukesh probably biding his time for a green card

You know Guyanese people are a disgruntled and suspicious lot!

why can't it be true love, and accept the woman at face value?

* Yeah right! TRUE LOVE!

* A 41 year old "washed up" California woman decides to become a virgin bride---so she travels 8000 miles to India----and marries her naïve face book conquest, 25 year old Indian prince Mukesh.

* THE MAGIC OF FACEBOOK.

Haha, 41 year olds are not washed up....you posted once that old ladies are sensual, and 41 is not old. This is the age when women discover their true selves!

Remember Janet Rosenberg left her comfortable US home to live in mosquito ridden Guyana for true love!

I Saw a Utube vid where a bunch of glazed eyes idiots in the media sought to crucify one of these young women for commenting on this horrible situation by accusing her of tarnishing the image of India. Apparently, it mattered not to them that it was happening but that this young woman was acknowledging in the US media that it happens.

White women like brown skinned men. Who you think Princess Di was hanging out with in Australia and after? I detect a hint of jealousy on this thread

that girl will be his fantasy so he will not treat her bad. She will begin to complain about cooking on the floor with gas you buy and lack of a bubble bath and manicure in a jiffy. No Guyanese want to return to Guyana to ride on a tractor much less to india to be in a cow cart.

why would there be jealousy when hardly anyone would think of living like that? The lady is not bad looking but not one I would go to India and live with! Lots available right here. Actually, I suspect something is definitely wrong with her head.

Nothing wrong with living on a farm. As a matter of fact many white people are quitting white collar jobs and moving to wood burning stoves and farmland.

People seem to think a simple life should be shunned.

Mukesh on Facebook, hence the man might have even have Internet at home.

That chap is brown, and more shades of grey than me! Plus all I have is a cardboard box. No self respecting white lady will settle for that!

Ha, ha, I need to improve my emotional correctness to my advantage!
