128 (English) 5 Years of Building Community in the Peruvian Diaspora: Special Guests Peruvian Sisters and Sissy from We Are Kuska

Peruvians of USA turns 5! In this special anniversary episode, host Nathalie is joined by fellow Peruvian-American creators — Whitney and Sam from Peruvian Sisters and guest host Sissy Paulino from We Are Kuska — to reflect on what it’s taken to build platforms for the Peruvian diaspora.

Together, they discuss how their projects started, how they’ve evolved, and how what began as online storytelling led to real-life friendships and community. They also open up about cultural pride, burnout, representation, and what it means to feel “Peruvian enough” — especially when navigating two cultures.
