Present moms, UN nerds and being proud of your heritage with Danielle Vaughan
Danielle Vaughan is the eldest daughter of immigrant parents from Peru. Though she was born in the US she was raised in Peru from the age of six until she left for college at Stanford. Surprisingly, that wouldn’t be her last time living in Peru or her last time moving back to the U.S.
We talked with Danielle about the important role her mother has played in shaping her life, exposing her kids to Peruvian culture, and how finding your people can make settling into a new country so much easier. Danielle is also a dear friend of Claudia, and she shares the peculiar way in which they met.

About the Hosts:
Luciana and Claudia Valdiviezo know what it’s like to move to the U.S. – twice. They were born in Peru and lived there for only a few years until their parents moved the family to the U.S. The sisters kept in touch with their roots, speaking Spanish at home and every Christmas when they visited Peru for the holidays. Then, when they were 12 and 11 respectively, the family moved back to Peru. Growing up both Peruvian and American during those formative years gave Luciana and Claudia a deep understanding of what it means to belong, and not belong, at the same time.
The sisters eventually moved back to the U.S. Luciana is a marketing professional living in Washington D.C. with her husband and two young children. Claudia is a writer living in New York City.
