Being Iranian While Traveling | The Border Crossing Stress

Not every travel day feels exciting. In this vlog I talk openly about the anxiety that comes with crossing borders while being Iranian, the stress that can quietly take over your thoughts, and how difficult it can be to stay present when part of your heart is always connected to home. I share how these feelings show up for me and how I try to manage them The day ended more gently though. Bopha stayed over and that small moment of comfort meant more than I expected.
