This is a group project with Grace Ann Perry, Pei-Che Lin and Yining Zhang.

Outlander aims to capture the real stories, experiences, and perspectives of foreigners who have chosen a new city as their home.

In a world characterized by increasingly interconnected communities and diverse cultural exchanges, Outlander Magazine emerges as a beacon of authenticity, unity, and global exploration. We are not just another magazine; we are a platform that shines a spotlight on the raw, real stories of foreigners who have ventured to new cities around the world. Our mission is to capture their experiences and perspectives, celebrating the rich tapestry of these diverse urban landscapes. With unwavering dedication, we endeavor to break down barriers, foster unity, and build bridges between cultures.

At Outlander Magazine, we champion authenticity. We believe in the power of genuine stories and unfiltered experiences. Our articles and interviews are unvarnished and unrestrained. We provide a platform for individuals to share their unadulterated opinions, challenges, triumphs, and the impact of their decisions to move to a new city. These stories, teeming with emotion and vulnerability, serve as a testament to the strength and resilience of individuals who embark on journeys of self-discovery and reinvention in unfamiliar environments.

Our focus is not restricted to a single city or region; it’s global. We celebrate the unique and vibrant tapestry of cities all over the world. From the bustling streets of New York City to the serene corners of Kyoto, we explore how foreigners’ lives are shaped and transformed by their chosen new homes. This global perspective not only enriches our content but also broadens our readers’ horizons, allowing them to vicariously experience the diversity of cities they may never visit. One city is chosen for each issue. Each specific city is used as the center of that issue of Outlander magazine and all articles will be based on moving to that city.

In addition to our interviews and articles, Outlander Magazine provides guides, travel tips, and recommendations for those who wish to explore these remarkable cities. We hope to inspire our readers to embark on their own journeys of discovery and adventure, fostering their appreciation for new cultures, traditions, and experiences.

Outlander Magazine is more than just a publication; it is a movement. It is a testament to the shared human experience and our collective desire to explore, understand, and connect with the world around us. Through our raw, real articles and interviews, we invite you to embark on a journey to new cities and new perspectives, fostering a sense of unity, celebrating diversity, and breaking down the barriers that separate us. Together, we will continue to amplify the voices of the outlanders, explore the world, and build a more inclusive and compassionate society.
