we invited on our native New Yorker friend to talk about what it was actually like growing up in the great city, and how it differs from our suburb lives.
tune in as we go head-to-head to decide what's better -- childhood in the city or 'burbs?

meeting us in a very chinese time of our lives... since 2000. growing up, we catch bits and pieces of their journeys to america, but we rarely get the full story. now, in our 20s, we put some of those pieces together and reflect on how that immigrant life shaped who we've become -- how we see work, money, family, and identity as part of communities that forged a sense of home in new places.
what happens when you visit your parents' hometowns as a Chinese immigrant kid? you feel EVERYTHING.
in celebration of lunar new year, we reflect on our recent trips back home to the motherland of china – reuniting with relatives, realizing how our lives are perceived in america, and confronting the lifestyle gaps between east and west. we talk immigrant identity, generational changes, and the irreplaceable love of family <3.
share your stories of trips back home with us too!

this week's thesis: how you spend each day is how you spend your life. but, how do you decide what to fill your (dwindling) hours of free time? what do you want with your life? that and more existential angst on this week's episode.
