My guest was Melody, an Iranian teenager living in Turkey. We mainly talked about how her bicultural background affects her appreciation of both cultures, languages, and societies. She said that she regrets not learning more about the history and culture of Iran and urges young Iranian teenagers not to lose touch with their native society. She also mentioned how speaking multiple languages is extremely challenging as she feels like she is not adept in either of them. She finds synonyms for a word in different languages, which makes her communication even more difficult. She hasn’t faced any major discrimination or structural bias in her education and social life, although she is struggling with adapting to the Turkish language in her school.
