8: Things I Wish I Knew Before I Moved Countries - and Started a Family
Update: 2023-12-16
Description
This episode Julia speaks to Emanuela, who migrated from their home of Sicily twice: first to New York as a teenager with her family, then to London as an adult. Studying and working in England, Emanuela unexpectedly found a new family with the Community of Sant'Egidio, who work with the homeless and marginalised in London.
Now a mother of two small children, Emanuela talks to Julia about the challenges and blessings of complex identities, beginning a family over a thousand miles away from your own parents - and how she's tried to live her faith and build community in a lonely world.
