University abroad after High School in the Philippines (Abby & Randolph)"Randolph is one of my good friends from Cebu, and he moved to attend university in Dubai about a year ago. Going from our small city to the highways of Dubai, and from juicy Lechon to pork restrictions in restaurants, Randolph shares his experience adapting to a new country that is very different from the Philippines. We also cry a bit thinking about how much cheaper everything is back home, like boba. :')"

This week, my Lola and I discussed her experiences moving to the US in 1969 and working in the US from the 1970s-1990s. We discussed assimilating to US culture, raising children in a new country, discrimination in the workplace, and other common immigrant experiences."

Four months later, the Covid-19 outbreak shut down all tourism operations in the Philippines, including the food park. This podcast is really special to me since my dad got stuck in Palawan during the lockdown where nobody could enter or exit the island, so the last time I saw him was November 2019 when I visited the food park during its soft opening."

I chose to speak to her about the mixed Filipino experience because I think that being mixed is something that is becoming ever more increasingly common but is also an experience that can be super unique to an individual. Our podcast functioned more like a conversation between me and my sister and I hoped to communicate some of our frustrations with being mixed but also some of the positive experiences we've gained through it. I also think we slightly touch base on struggling a little bit with identity and how being mixed put us in a spot where we felt more "in-touch" with a certain ethnic and cultural identity at certain parts of our lives."

She went to college in the Philippines and then also went to college once she came to the US. Throughout the years she has told me countless stories about her experience growing up in the Philippines, as well as how it was coming to America. So I thought it would be interesting to interview her on a topic that she has experienced both in the Philippines and in the US."

My Lolo is an accountant, but he is part of many Filipino political organizations in both the US and in the Philippines. He's good friends with a lot of Filipino politicians and had a lot to say about the new Marcos regime and the flawed Filipino political system in general. Thanks for listening!"
