Blasian Backpacker?: How choosing my blog name allowed me to reckon with my identity.
I like to think that by now referring to myself as blasian I am taking ownership of who I am and of my identity. A lot of who I am today comes from my experiences of my family’s cultures and growing up as a woman of colour. But I can’t lie, it’s still something that makes me feel uncomfortable.
