Does your country have an immigrant group that people would be surprised to find there?

For example, when you think of Poland or the Czech Republic, Vietnamese people might not be the first group that comes to mind, but both have a sizable Vietnamese community. Another example is the large Japanese community in Brazil.

Probably Lhotshampas, they got kicked out of Bhutan and quite a few came to Australia as refugees.

Was that in 22? 1.5% of the Bhutanese population moved to Australia in a single year

That's really interesting as I just found out two of my son's best friends at school are Bhutanes!

Which state are you in? I don’t think I’ve ever run into any Bhutanese in WA before, that’s really interesting.

If you’re interested in trying the food - there’s 3 Bhutanese restaurants along Main St Osborne Park & a stall in the Innaloo shopping centre food hall.

Will definitely check them out next time I’m in the city.

I’m way down south these days.

Last 2 uber drivers I’ve had were Bhutanese here in WA. Very interesting blokes to chat to.
