Identity and upbringing from the perspective of Humairaa, a woman of British-Pakistani background. Jump with us and learn what does “Coconut/Oreo person” mean, the types of arranged marriages and Pakistani community bonds, the 1st Pakistani community in Swansea, and Quran lessons in the Mosque at five years old. We discuss the positives of people pleasing and getting married over the phone (yes, it's a real thing!), group chats to find a husband or a wife, and overusing makeup in school.
*snowflake - easily hurt by realities of life person.
