In this episode of Culture Cuddles, we open up about our personal journeys of living abroad and the identity struggles we’ve faced along the way. After nearly five years in Germany, Uyen shares how returning to Vietnam now brings unexpected culture shocks—like feeling nervous in traffic she once navigated effortlessly and getting stomach aches from food she grew up loving. We delve into how embracing a new culture can make us question where we truly belong and how it affects our relationships with family and friends back home.
