Kiera Wright-Ruiz On Moving To Japan & Writing The Book Of Her Dreams

Today’s guest is Kiera Wright-Ruiz, author of My (Half) Latinx Kitchen: Half Recipes, Half Stories, All Latin American.

 

Kiera joins host Kerry Diamond to share the journey behind her deeply personal debut cookbook, which weaves together her cultural heritage and love of food. They also dive into her bold decision to move to Tokyo during the pandemic—a move that became more than just an adventure. She opens up about life in Japan, the surprising perks (like $10 dentist appointments!), and how it compares to the U.S.
