How Living in France Changed Us 🇫🇷 | Identity, Habits & Culture Shock | Masala and Salsa E5

Описание: 🎙️ Episode 5 – “Who Even Are We Anymore?” | Life After France 🇫🇷

In this heartfelt and hilarious episode, Masala (Priyanjana 🇮🇳) and Salsa (Andrea 🇲🇽) dive deep into how living in France as international students has changed them — from the tiny habits they’ve picked up to the big existential questions they never expected to ask.

We talk about:
• The French habits we’ve adopted (some useful, some just… confusing) 🧀🥖
• The things about French culture we still don’t get (why are people so quiet at parties??) 😅
• How moving abroad messes with your sense of identity
• Feeling caught between cultures: not fully French, but not the same person back home
• How being away from family & home reshapes friendships and priorities
• How France, India, Mexico — and a few other countries we’ve lived in — shaped who we are now 🌍
• And of course… a few cross-cultural LOL moments along the way

This episode is for:
✨ Students thinking about studying in France
✨ Immigrants trying to find their place in a new country
✨ Anyone who’s ever asked: “Why do I feel like I belong everywhere and nowhere?”
✨ Girls trying to live their best croissant-core life while missing home cooking
