Episode 12.5 Family Vacations Make Us Hungry

Oakland x Asian x Mom Podcast

What were family vacations like when you were a kid? In this mini-episode, we reminisce about memorable childhood trips, talk about the planning and route mapping it took before yelp and GPS were a thing, and how we showed off the beauty of the Golden State to visitors! Somehow, we get a little off-topic and spend a good chunk time talking about food (no surprise!)...from Asian food cravings while on vacation to swapping stories about the most random places in the world we've eaten Chinese food to Asian moms and aunties smuggling cooked meats while traveling internationally! We also touch upon the logistics and planning it takes now that we have families of our own. And as much as Covid has put a pause on far-away travels, we feel blessed that we can still spend quality time with the extended family stay-cationing in the Bay Area and commit to taking that classic picture of our families with the Golden Gate Bridge as its backdrop.
