“Biggest shock for me was the food. I thought I knew good American comfort food, but theirs was to another level. It was also interesting to see how they had their own little language and words for things that I thought were called another.”
“For example, when you bring over a casserole, they call it a hot dish. Or car tags are called tabs. Or when they say ‘oofdah’ — first time I heard someone say that I thought they were having a stroke lol. It was an experience living in the Midwest, but ultimately, I felt like I didn’t fit into their white suburbia because I stood out as one of the few minorities. I worked for a school with close to 100 employees, and I was one of four minorities. Beautiful weather, but not for me.”
