Today I’m joined by my longtime friend Joss (yes, from the iconic Joss and Janik channel)!!! She grew up in San Luis Potosí, Mexico, and now lives between Germany and Mexico with her German husband, Janik. Fun fact: I was their wedding ceremony officiant and it went well so maybe I need a new career?? heheWe met in our master’s program nearly a decade ago, and this episode is full of stories — from strict Mexican households and Catholic school uniforms to navigating love, accents, and language abroad.From family dinners and curfews to Día de los Muertos, culture shock, and the rules we broke (or didn’t), we’re sharing what it really means to carry your roots while building a new life in another country. That’s something near and dear to our hearts! –*Howdy und Servus!!
