In this episode, we talk about our immigration stories and the pull of the Indian diaspora on foreign shores. From packing up our lives in under 23 kg to taking on a new identity while trying to maintain our old one, Amruta and Satya discuss being students, professionals, and visa-enthusiasts. Five years and five hundred visa questions later, we know what our future holds. That is until our next visa appointment, of course.
Bonus: How to order a burger in the US and how not to mess up basic dal in an American kitchen.
Also: We watched two more Oscar-nominated films this week: Judas and the Black Messiah and Promising Young Woman.
