In this episode, we sit down with a diverse group of foreigners living in Jordan to explore what “foreigner” truly means from their perspective.
Through honest, personal, and sometimes emotional conversations, our guests share their daily experiences, cultural discoveries, and the challenges and joys of building a life far from home.
Do they still feel like outsiders?
What moments made them feel welcomed — or different?
And most importantly: Do they consider Jordan home?
From navigating language and traditions to forming friendships and finding belonging, this episode offers a heartfelt look into what it means to live between cultures.
Whether you’re Jordanian, a foreign resident, or simply curious about life abroad, this conversation will open your eyes to the many layers of identity, belonging, and community in Jordan.
