Weddings Are a Lot, Especially as an Immigrant

Weddings Are a Lot, Especially as an Immigrant

We’re kicking off Season Four with real talk about the immigrant experience! From wedding planning to visa troubles, we’re catching you up on life since Season Three.


We dig into why accountability matters when building something bigger than ourselves, and share why destination weddings might just be the secret to sidestepping cultural chaos.


Oh, and our first-ever community game night is coming up! Tickets are now live at japadiaries.com/event.


So happy to be back with y’all. This season’s going to be a good one. Are you ready?
