I’m Miiko Natalia.

I never thought about my ancestry until at age 13 I found out that my grandmother comes from Japan. Yay!

I don’t look much like Asian, but I don’t look much like Caucasian! *haha*

I’m very mixed. I’m 1/4 Japanese and Polish. I was born in Poland, I grew up there too. I want to visit Japan, but I haven’t money to fly there…I speak Polish on a daily basis, but I know Japanese too. Read More

I thought it might be fun to type in my ethnic background into Google and see what happened.

I was amazed that there is a whole site dedicated to Hapas!

I have gone my life being asked, “What nationality are you?”  It has been annoying at times especially while growing up and trying to fit in with the rest of the kids.

As an adult, it is another story.  I like the comments and especially the compliments!  I now have two Hapa kids that are so beautiful.

Yes there are more of us Hapas out there and I guess it’s good to share this. I will keep it simple.

I’m Kim-Sung Ariza and I was born in the great nation of Korea in Daejeon and I am proud to be Korean.

Besides being Asian my father is of  French, Dutch and Polish decent, my Mother is just Korean. My father grew up in Iłża in Poland. I also visited there to meet my father’s family but that’s about it for me when it comes to his relatives. Read More

Konnichiwa! My name is Ririlih but my friends call me Rini.

I am proud to be Hapa, and I am proud of all my heritages! My mom is German, Polish and French, while my dad is Irish and Japanese.

I got made fun of a lot in school being called “fake” and “fake Asian” because I don’t look full Asian. If I wasnt being made fun of for that, my name was being made fun of. I always tried not to let it get to me because a man once said “You be you and fuck everyone else, if they dont like you then fuck ‘em, you don’t need them!”

I’ve followed that advice since I’ve been 13. I am proud to be me, and proud to be Japanese.

Hi, my nickname is Miyu, and I’m half Asian and half European.

My dad is half German half Polish and my mum is Thai, Laotian, Vietnamese and Chinese.

A lot of people ask me if I’m Japanese because of my name, and because I like Japanese stuff. But I just married a Hispanic guy, whose last name is Amaya.

I grew up in Germany. But we also have houses in Thailand, where my mum’s family lives. Now I live in Texas, where my husband lives. Read More

Hey my name is Maya :)

I was born in the US and moved to Japan when I was 10, and just moved back to California last year.

So I’ve lived half my life in California and half my life in Japan.

I have a lot of mixes, but you can barely tell because of my Japanese roots. It’s funny because depending on the person they think I either look “so Asian” or “not Asian at all.” Read More
