Finding Home in Myself -Balancing Chinese, Bolivian, Canadian & More
Episode 23 - November 18th, 2020
Where is home? Not just the physical place, a country, a city, a house
What culture feels like home?
Where do we belong?
For Third Culture Kids, these questions can be difficult to answer.
Laura Keung was born in Argentina to her Chinese dad and Bolivian mom.
But that was just the beginning of a long tally of cultures she balanced along the way.
From the start, she felt a clash of cultures and lack of belonging. 30+ years and several cultures later, Laura is finding home where it had been all along… in herself.
Listen to hear how the rest of these cultures fit into her story:
USA, Canadian, Italian, Austrian, German

Laura the Foodie
Here’s a great recipe for Bolivian Cuñapé—an amazing tea time bread like delicacy. It’s cheesy and best of all, gluten free!
Bolivian Peanut Soup is another one of my favourites for lunch—I love the fries on the soup. Could we call this a sort of Bolivian poutine? Haha.
Here’s a recipe for Char Siu—it’s Chinese bbq pork—one of my faves to eat when we go to Hong Kong.
