Experiences with being Asian in this world.

Question and Disussion
Hello everyone, I'd like to ask people about their personal experiences with living as someone of Asian heritage or from an Asian country, what it's like and how you would describe it, especially anyone who lives as a minority in a foreign country. I personally am middle eastern and grew up in a western country, and in my experience while I always loved my country and the people around me I defiantly did feel different as at home I always spoken in my countries mother tongue and ate the food of my heritage country. It's like living in two different spaces, sometimes. I was hoping other people could share their experiences and talk about how they lead through. I'd love any responses! Thank you for reading!

Hello r/asia ! I wish every one of you wonderful human beings a happy first of december and a good rest of the month from r/argentina

Hello! How is everyone? To explain a little bit, we at r/argentina wanted to wish every country subreddit a good day, because we might be from different countries or continents but truly, we're all humans, and we should get along and care for each other no matter what fictional differences we set for ourselves.
If you guys have any question about the country (or want to engage in friendly conversation, I won't mind haha) I'll be happy to answer!
Oh and disclaimer: I read the rules but mobile is confusing so if I'm breaking any rules, forgive me.
Instantaneous edit: I might take a 'small bit' to answer comments
