In Episode 5, we sit down with Mr. Leko, one of the early Bhutanese immigrants to Canberra, who takes us through his remarkable journey from Bhutan to Australia. He opens up about why he made the difficult decision to leave his job and home behind, the challenges he encountered after arriving in Australia and the struggles and experiences that shaped his journey as an immigrant. Beyond his personal journey, Mr. Leko is deeply committed to the Bhutanese community. He currently serves as the President of the Dudjom Krodikali Association of Canberra and as the Representative of Dudjom Krodikali across Australia. His dedication to the association and his active participation in Bhutanese community activities in Canberra reflect his strong sense of service and connection to his roots. But perhaps what makes Mr. Leko truly special is the warmth he brings wherever he goes. Known for his infectious smile, laughter, positivity and energetic spirit, he has become a familiar and much loved presence within the community. Join us in Episode 5 as Mr. Leko shares not just the story of his migration but also the struggles, lessons, service and experiences that have shaped his life in Australia.

Kuenphen Tshering Euden

Miss

4 Sept 2026 • 59.09 Hrs.

From being left behind at just 13 when her parents left for Australia, to becoming one of the youngest Bhutanese Registered Nurses at Canberra Hospital. Kuenphen Tshering Euden’s story is one of resilience, sacrifice and determination. In Episode 6 of BWK, Kuenphen opens up about growing up away from her parents, the emotions and excitement of their reunion and her journey of adapting to life in Australia. Today, at just 22, she has already achieved another major milestone, purchasing a home together with her parents. Isn’t that inspiring? Born into a Tshangla speaking family from Eastern Bhutan, Kuenphen speaks Tshangla fluently but continues to make every effort to speak Dzongkha, a challenge she embraces while working alongside colleagues from diverse cultural backgrounds. Beyond nursing, she has her eyes set on the future: retiring early and building a networking business. This is a story of a young Bhutanese woman who turned separation into strength and dreams into milestones.
