Story SeriesA Mile in My Shoes

Dalwinder Singh

Collected in partnership with Perth Festival and The Empathy Museum, A Mile in My Shoes is an extraordinary collection of stories that give us a glimpse into the lives of Western Australians from all walks of life.

Dalwinder Singh shares his experiences – both good and bad – as a Sihk taxi driver in Perth. ‘It’s just about breaking down barriers—neighbours may look different but they live in the same suburb.’
