Meet Us
The Khelas
Samantha Khela
The Vietnamese Side
Born and raised in Ontario by Vietnamese parents, Samantha studied at the University of Toronto where she met Amir. A pharmacist by training and a foodie at heart, she brings the Vietnamese culture, traditions, and recipes to Khela Meets World. She's the organized one, the planner, and the reason anything actually gets done on time.
Amir Khela
The Punjabi Side
Born in Montreal and raised between Quebec and Ontario, Amir completed his BSc in Nutritional Science at the University of Toronto before earning his Doctor of Pharmacy. An entrepreneur running multiple businesses, he brings the Punjabi culture, Sikh traditions, and big family energy to Khela Meets World. He's the dreamer, the risk-taker, and the one who says "let's just book it" on every trip.
Together we're a Vietnamese and Punjabi family from Toronto —three wedding ceremonies, 15 countries, and two kids, Amelia and Kai. This is our life, unfiltered.
