  • Summary

  • Today’s episode is a little different. 

    Unlike most other episodes, this one doesn’t dive too deep into Sherin’s story of growing up in the UAE and moving back to Cairo for university. It starts that way, yes; but, in typical Sherin and Monica fashion, the conversation is basically one giant tangent that starts with a very important question: wtf is a Gulfie?

    Bringing two very different perspectives to the conversation, Sherin and Monica discuss the word ‘diaspora’ – what it means, who it entails, and the very particular experience it represents – in contrast with the third culture kid experience that most Gulfies identify with.

    If we’re honest, this episode is basically just shitting on the North American diaspora and its relationship with Egypt. In other words, Sherin shitting on Monica and her kind.

    We’re sure you’ll have some strong opinions just like we did – we’d love to hear them via Instagram.

    Sherin hides from social media like it’s a bors, but you can share your thoughts with us at The Foreign Local (@theforeignlocal) and follow us for more stories connecting the Egyptian diaspora with everyday life in Om el Donya.
