We all carry invisible suitcases when we leave home. Packed with language, memories, rituals, contradictions—and the courage to grow. I’m Ray, a chemical engineer turned storyteller. Born in China, I spent 15 years living in South Korea before moving to Stanford, California. In this podcast, I talk to friends, family, and fellow travelers in Mandarin, English, or Korean about the things we bring with us—and the things we leave behind. We explore cultural differences, identity shifts, everyday joy, and emotional struggles. You may hear your own story in ours.
