Hi, I am Riya Menon and this is Passport Full of Elsewhere, a show for everyone who grew up between places and has never had a short answer to where are you from. I grew up in Dubai with Malayali parents and an accent from an American school, so I have been answering that question my whole life. This week I am joined by Nadim, who grew up in a compound in Jeddah with a Canadian passport, and Mei, who was born in Singapore to a Dutch father and a Malaysian mother and went to school in four countries. We compare the answer we give at borders, the answer we give on dates, and the answer we give ourselves at two in the morning. It is funny, it is a little tender, and I think you will recognise yourself. You are listening on Witspeak Podcasts.
