Not From Here, Nor There

In this episode, I talk about the weird, beautiful, and sometimes heartbreaking experience of being an immigrant—belonging everywhere and nowhere at the same time. From cultural misfires and bilingual brain fog to falling in love with new traditions while missing old ones, I share what it really feels like to build a life between two worlds. I reflect on viral moments like Gloria’s famous Modern Family quote, explain why “vai ver se eu tô na esquina” doesn’t translate, and laugh at how my husband now bumps funk music in his car. There’s food talk (of course), seasonal confusion (do we even have fall in Brazil?), and a little reminder that growing and changing doesn’t mean losing yourself. ✨ Share your story for Brazuca’s Tales via the link in my Instagram bio @brazucaillustrations 🎧 Know a fellow Brazuca with an inspiring journey?
