Ep. 105 - From Mexico to Berlin: I Lost Myself Trying to Fit In (Ft. Berlin & Elsewhere)

from Dating Beyond Borders · host Marina Iakovleva

I chat with Luardo, host of the Berlin & Elsewhere podcast. Luardo is a Mexican who moved to Berlin 14 years ago, and in this episode we dive into what it’s really like building a life abroad in Germany.We talk about trying too hard to assimilate and losing parts of your identity in the process, the biggest differences between German and Mexican mentality, what happens when a Mexican dates or has a relationship with a German, and how living abroad can completely change the way you think, relate to others, and see yourself.This is an honest conversation about identity, culture shock, relationships, expat life in Berlin, and the personal transformation that often comes with moving overseas.Say hi to Luardo: https://www.instagram.com/berlinelsewhere/Each week I will interview guests from all around the world on the topics of culture, connection and of course, dating. The goal is to go as deep as possible and to really understand where we all come from and how much culture influences our life.Want to join the mailing list? https://datingbeyondborders.eo.page/newsletterSay hi on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/datingbeyondbordersDating Beyond Borders channel: https://www.youtube.com/user/datingbeyondborders
