Traveling as an American & our favorite country in Asia | Outcasts the Podcast EP126
We both have the most favorite country in Asia, can you guess? We're both originally from Macau and moved to the US five years ago—funny enough, at the same time as our partners. We officially became US citizens just last year. Paji recently took a two-month-plus journey back to some parts of Asia and 20 days in Macau to reconnect with family who are still there, living as migrants. Meanwhile, Iasmin’s reflected on how, as Filipino-Macau mixes, we've actually found ourselves more connected to our roots here in the States than we ever were back home. Stay in end for a mini #Cantonese lesson to start the new year! A segment we'll be doing every episode now, also we're back on our 1 episode a week now that Paji is back on the same time zone :)
