“Everywhere I go, I’m a foreigner.”
I still can’t stop thinking about this statement by Nino Melikidze. It perfectly captures an emotion immigrants struggle with - always feeling out of place.
Nino is an experienced immigrant. Her first experience with immigration was as a five-year-old.
Since then, she’s moved to the United States, Colombia, and now lives in Canada.
Nino joined me on the 6th episode of The Newcomers Podcast to talk about:
Why moving abroad is probably done best as a student
Dealing with cultural differences as you move across different countries
The exact moment she realized she wasn’t in the comfort of her home anymore
Dealing with the existential immigrant question - will I ever stop feeling like an immigrant?
Why fellow immigrants make the best friends, and more.
Enjoy!
