Erika

"Yes, the bisque-doll-like Erika" "Th-that expression is a little embarrassing, could you stop using it?"

Jai, an East Indian of Hindu family background, was a close friend to me when I was living in Vancouver, BC. He, his German wife Erika, and two daughters lived in a nice condominium in the Kitsilano beach area of Vancouver, BC. He was initially my coworker in a software company. He liked his job, as it was full of learning. His family followed a European-style of living in North America, as they were unhindered by television, took mass transit, ate German food, and immersed themselves in the EU languages of English, German, and French. Jai and Erika wanted to take Japanese in night school, but thought that it might be too challenging. Jai liked the ideas of Zen Buddhism.

Jai, my East Indian friend, and I preferred to lunch or dine at a Japanese restaurant. Jai was multilingual and knew several East Indian languages. He knew some German, as he tried to speak to his daughters in this language. He met his wife Erika in Germany, when he was working there. Before, he had also a stint in Thailand.
