Where Are You From? Identity & More.: Recent Episodes
Ricardo Cazorla
This podcast will try to answer one of the questions I hate the most: Where are you from? Why do I hate it so much? Because I don't really know. Can you be from more than one place? Is "blood" really binding? How will I try to answer those questions? By listening to others and their path to understanding their cultural identity. Will I succeed? I don't know either! However, the journey will be fun and interesting. Are you ready? Where are you from?
