Episode 1 - Not all those who are lost are wandering

Episode 2: Home in heritage

In the second episode, we explore the ways the diaspora creates home in heritage and how that creates new forms of hybrid belonging.

Episode 1 - Not all those who are lost are wandering

Summer travel is often romanticized. But what about the kind of travel that doesn’t end? In this opening episode, host Lys explores what it means to live away from where you were born and the quiet, often invisible strength it takes to remake a life elsewhere. From aesthetic escapes to acts of survival, we draw a line between vacation and migration, wanderlust and diaspora. Through personal reflection and cultural critique, this episode invites you to see migration not as loss but as layered, resilient design. Topics explored: - The emotional labor of living abroad - Travel vs. migration: who gets to move freely? - Diaspora as adaptation, not absence - Loneliness, performance, and the cost of a “better life” This episode is for the quiet border crossers. The cultural shapeshifters. The ones building home where none existed. You are not lost, you are layered. #TheFindingBlyssPodcast
