Ep.8: The "Where Are You Really From?" Question

Belonging isn’t just about where we’re from -  it’s about who makes room for us there.
In this episode, I reflect on what it means to belong as someone born and raised in Norway to Palestinian parents, and why a simple question - Where are you really from? - can carry more weight than it seems. I explore how global citizenship invites us to widen our definition of belonging, to make space for multiple identities, and to practice inclusion in our everyday lives.
