From Down Under to Down South is a twice-weekly reflection from an Australian making a life in the American South.

After moving from Australia to Tennessee in 2018, I began noticing the subtle cultural differences most people miss — the way politeness sounds different, the way goodbyes stretch longer, the way everyday moments quietly reveal what’s different.

Some episodes explore those contrasts directly. Others are quiet stories from the week — conversations and small moments that say something bigger.

It’s not outrage or culture wars. And it’s not a travel diary. It’s simply one Australian perspective on life between two countries.

If you’ve ever lived overseas, loved two places at once, or found yourself caught between familiar and foreign — you’ll feel at home here.

New episodes are released twice weekly as part of the broader From Down Under to Down South series across podcast and YouTube.
