Typical Indian outside India
There are so many things 'typical' of an Indian guy that it is just like creating an Abstract class "guy" and then adding more features to it! That was in Java sense.
Guy who is Indian outside India will typically be a Software Engineer in his early 20s. He will think that landing outside India was his most important dream in life. With a typical Indian accent, he will manage his first few days trying to grasp the accent which he is not used to.
Let me give this guy a name - Rahul? Ravi? no no. This is too much of real names! Let me keep, Babu - Something like "Babuji... " or "brother". Here starts the story of Babu who is 23 landed in US in the grand place of California.
As I told already, his first dream of life is achieved. Now, more dreams on his way! His next plans will be to work hard and hard, and, roam around places with rented cars and sharing that with all his friends. Parents would have said, "Don't spend too much... save and come back after the project." He will follow that. After few days, he is bored of sharing the house with 4 people. He wants only 1 room-mate. So, Babu moves to a new apartment. One year passes.
Babu's project is going good and he has now got used to the accent. He now knows the restaurants to go, malls to shop, places to visit, etc. Basically, he has got used to US life. Only thing he might be missing is a 'friend'. Just then starts his new dream - he needs a true friend in his life. He is 25 man! Typical Indian you see..., so, no running behind girls or anything of that sort. All he feels is, "hope my parents find a good girl for me..." With lot of confusion and decision making, he is finally ready to visit India for "interviews". When he just turns 26, he visits. He returns back to his work after a month. Babu now feels that he needs to grow more, mature more and have a job which can give him security for next 5 years. For a year, he pushes his latest dream. By 27, he is back to his dreams when his mom suggests a very nice girl! Within a month, Babu is engaged. Who is the girl? Girl is some girl who is working as Software Engineer in some company. Wedding over. Babu and biwi come to US and live a happy life.
Oh wait! That is not the end. This is just the beginning of future dreams - Greencard, kids, house, start a company, etc etc.
That was our Babu's story. I think, in a way, everybody's story is somewhat the same.
