The name of this magazine and community comes from something l’ve been interested in for a long time; The way we communicate as dual-heritage individuals. I wanted the name to mirror this :) We’ve had loads of feedback from a bunch of you expressing how relatable this is, expressing how you understood what we were trying to get at from the beginning! I think it’s one of the strongest parts of this magazine if I’m honest and I love that it mirrors our lives experiences. From a personal story, a personal saying to sharing it with you cool dudes, simply amazing #southasian #indiemag #punjabi #southasiandiaspora #britishpakistani [code switching, code switchers, brand, brand name, magazine, south asian magazine, south asian community, south asain diaspora, south asian languages, Punjabi, Urdu, Hindi, desi, desi community]
