How Moving Abroad Changes Your Relationship With Food | Home & Away S1 Ep10

What does home really mean when you’re far from where you started, and how does food help us find it again? This episode marks the tenth and final installment of Season One of Home & Away, and it’s a fitting close because this conversation is all about food, identity, and the feeling of home. In this episode, Peace Itimi is joined by her close friend John, someone she’s known for over 13 years, as they cook a seafood stir-fry pasta and reflect on how relocating to a new country reshapes your relationship with food, culture, and even yourself. As the meal comes together, the conversation opens up into something deeper. Moving to a new city or country doesn’t just expose you to new ingredients — it changes how you think about what you eat and why you eat it. From discovering what actually goes into a “seafood mix,” to cooking dishes like calamari and oxtail at home for the first time, exposure plays a powerful role in expanding taste, curiosity, and confidence in the kitchen. John shares how spending a month in Korea shifted his perception of Nigerian food, forcing him to rethink balance, portions, and health. Eating fish-heavy meals, vegetables, protein, and rice as a side made him realize how carb-heavy and oil-forward many Nigerian meals can be. That experience didn’t disconnect him from home food — instead, it helped him find smarter, more intentional ways to enjoy it without losing its cultural meaning. In this episode, food becomes connection, hospitality, and belonging. 🌍 Learn more about Peace Itimi and Founders Connect:    / @peaceitimiofficial   #HomeAndAwaySeries #FoodAndIdentity #DiasporaLife #LifeAbroad #FindingHome #ImmigrantExperience #FoodAsCulture #CommunityAndBelonging ⏰ Timestamps 00:50 — Introduction 02:30 — Meet John 03:40 — The first time cooking oxtail 05:00 — How living abroad changes your relationship with food 06:25 — How Korea reshaped his perspective on food and lifestyle 07:45 — How the food you grow up with shapes your palate 10:23 — Learning to cook later in life 12:51 — Nigerian-inspired foods in the UK 13:20 — What “gentrified food” really means 16:06 — Traveling: Nigerian food vs exploring global cuisines 19:00 — Food as connection and home 22:00 — You carry home with you — and can always build a new one 📲 Explore more helpful tips • Remitly Help Center: https://bit.ly/remitly-support • Trust & Safety Center: https://bit.ly/4eAhwWJ • Send or transfer money internationally with Remitly: https://bit.ly/4njgD8N 💙 About Remitly Remitly is a leading digital financial services company on a mission to make international money transfers faster, easier, and more transparent for millions of immigrants and their families worldwide.
