"Embracing Culture Leads to a Wonderful Life"

We’re back with Africa Yoon today, to hear more about her journey of embracing Korean culture and how it has changed her life.

Before we speak to her, our writers this week wanted to delve into a more serious topic than what we might be used to.

If you’re in Britain, you’ll know about how hot the topic of migration has been in recent years. If not, stay tuned to find out.

"What eh miss yuh eh pass yuh"

“If it’s meant for you, it won’t pass you by.”

That’s the metaphor chosen by David Kallo, author of “Jumbie in Town”. The book explores his childhood adventures in search of characters from the rich amalgamation of Trinidad and Tobago folklore.

These childhood folk stories inspired more excitement than fear for him, but not for most of us, still scared of those notorious Jumbies!

Delia goes through some of them this Halloween!

"Blowing hot and cold"

Reading this metaphor you'd probably think about mood swings.

Delia's guest this week, TV journalist, Amanda Alexander, chose this metaphor as it describes her turbulent relationship with her mother who she's not seen for two years as she's A MISSING PERSON!

Listen to Metaphorically Speaking with Delia Dolor this week and help Amanda's search.

“Lion!”

That’s the metaphor chosen by Delia’s guest, author Tarik Walton. To him, the word signifies not only power, but the strength of body and mind needed to carry out ambition.

His book, ‘Secrets from MIT, Tennis and the Umpire Above: 10 Lessons From A Poor Jamaican Boy Who Never Gave Up On The Court’, outlines his journey from the court to the classroom and insights he has for navigating life.
