/in/ • /bəˈtwÄ“n/
noun
1: stands for the "grey area" that is second generation* Asian- American culture.
​
2: stands for those often stuck between two worlds- the one their parents grew up in and their own.

Being "in between" is a common experience and transcends borders for Asian diaspora living all around the world.This website will attempt to help you learn more about the different aspects that come with being stuck between two worlds, mostly through personal experience, and hopefully guide you through identifying the various aspects that have come to shape you. Of course every experience is different and my intentions are not to generalize or flatten, I just hope this website is a useful and informative resource for you.
