Episode notes
In this episode of the British Asian - Other Podcast [BAO], Anoushka (she/her) joins me to talk about moving from Bahrain to Delhi to the UK and the small, strange culture shocks that come with each move.
In just over half an hour, we get into mall culture, converting pounds back into Bahraini dinars in her head, the slow shift from cash to card, and the very specific shock of British nature. We also flip the conversation: she asks me if I've ever had culture shock going back to Asia.
