Your Panjabi roots, captured before they fade.
My Panjabi Story helps you document your elders’ memories - from their childhood to migration and everything in between.
What is My Panjabi Story?
A beautifully designed guided book to help your loved ones tell the story of their life - in their own words. From early memories in Panjab to the journey of building a new life abroad, each question honours their voice, preserves your heritage, and brings generations closer together.
You guide the story. They share the memories.
Start their story-
1. Open the book together
Sit with your parent or grandparent and gently guide them through each question - or record their answers as they speak. No pressure, no rush.
-
2. Capture their memories
Write their answers in their own words - in Panjabi, English, or a mix of both. There’s also space to add old photographs and mementos that bring their story to life.
-
3. Create a family treasure
Once complete, you’ll have a book that captures their journey and preserves your shared heritage - something to pass down for generations.
Because their story deserves to be remembered.
We’ve grown up hearing pieces of their journey - childhood in Panjab, the move to a new country, the sacrifices they made. But too often, these stories fade with time.
My Panjabi Story was created to help you preserve those memories before they’re lost - with questions that honour their voice and a format that makes it easy to sit down and start. This is more than a book. It’s their legacy in your hands.

Frequently asked questions
Do my parents or grandparents need to fill this out themselves?
Not at all. Most people sit with their loved one and ask the questions aloud, then write down the answers for them. It’s all about sharing stories together.
Is the book written in Panjabi or English?
Every question appears in English, Romanised Panjabi, and Gurmukhi. That way, your loved one can read it in the language they’re most comfortable with.
What kind of things does the book ask?
The book covers chapters like childhood in Panjab, migration, raising a family, and legacy. Each prompt is designed to bring out meaningful memories.
We understand that every Panjabi story is unique. Feel free to skip any chapters that don’t apply - even an unfinished book is still a story worth keeping.
Can I personalise the book?
Every copy is made to order and personalised with your loved one’s name on the cover, printed in a beautiful UV finish – because their story deserves to be remembered.
Is it suitable for any religion or background?
Yes – My Panjabi Story is culturally rooted, not religious. The questions are open-ended and work for families of any belief system.
Is it hard to complete?
Not at all. You can go at your own pace, one question at a time. Many families complete it over a few sessions.
