My stories and thoughts on life as me, Mikaela. Life from the perspective of a half Japanese, 20 something, trying to navigate through life and figure out what exactly I'm supposed to be doing here and how my perspectives affect how I view the world. The artwork used was designed by the lovely Mel (@monmiimel on twitter) so if you like it please go and check her out!

Eye Love You
Welcome to another episode of Love, Mikaela the podcast where I talk about anything and everything I want to. For today's episode I wanted to talk about the J Drama Eye Love You which features a Japanese female lead and a Korean male lead. This drama puts a lot of emphasis on exploring the cultural differences between Korea and Japan so I thought it would be a perfect drama to talk about during AAPI Month. SPOILERS from 28:55-35:53. Thanks for listening!!
Love, Mikaela

Half Japanese (Yes I'm talking about it again lol)
Happy AAPI Month! This is Love, Mikaela a podcast where I talk about literally anything and everything I want to. For today's episode I wanted to revisit my thoughts on being half Japanese and my own personal experiences. These aren't huge problems and I want to reiterate that I recognize my privilege and acknowledge that in the grand scheme of things these problems are miniscule in comparison to other issues other people face. Fair warning this is a ramble-y one. Again, these are just my own personal thoughts and opinions based on my own real life experience. I do not speak for anyone else and these thoughts and opinions could change in the future. Thanks for tuning in! Time stamps are below.
