Born and raised in the USA to Mexican immigrant parents, we feel lucky to have the best of both worlds. We felt our roots calling to us and decided to move to Mexico in January 2021. We have dual-citizenship, but that doesn’t always mean we are fully accepted by either country. There’s this “ni de aquí ni de allá” feeling that lingers within and sometimes feels like an identity crisis. We are called “pochos”, “mexicanos agringados”, “not real Americans”, and “not real Mexicans”.
To help us talk about this, we invited La Karencita, Mexicana born and raised, to reflect with us on what it means to be Mexican and Mexican-American. We explore cultural differences and similarities, what Mexicans think of people like us, and our struggles as Mexican-Americans living in Mexico.
