Episode 6: Growing Up on Guam vs. Living in the Bay Area – What We Miss, What’s Different, and Why We Still Crave Fiesta Plates

 

We’re finally back together IRL—recording this episode while lounging on Tita Joie’s couch, just like the old days (but with mics). In this chika-filled session, we take a heartfelt stroll down memory lane and compare our childhoods growing up on Guam to our current lives in the San Francisco Bay Area. From tight-knit island community vibes to the fast pace of mainland living, we talk about what’s changed, what we carry with us, and what we still hold sacred—like fiesta plates stacked high with red rice, BBQ chicken, and kelaguen. Join us as we reflect on the culture, comfort, and chaos that shaped us then and now.
