Raised in a Hindu family of 12 children in Trinidad, Polly came to Canada when she
was 30. The retired high school teacher and mother celebrates life through travel, friends, music – she loves Shakira – and computer games. “In Hindu culture, we have such a reverence for old people. I have always wanted to be one of them, to take my place. Listening to the stories of other older women, I have gained new perspectives on old experiences. I’ve learned that I haven’t explored everything in life – there are still things out there to find and that’s exciting.”
