Rooming with Emily Tkachenko in Cuba (Emily²)!
Unexpected Lessons Learned from Global:
Global has taught me that alone time and self reflection is very important, but it has also taught me that it is important to surround yourself with your supportive friends and family.
What Does Global Mean to You:
In Cuba, we were asked to describe Global Perspectives in one word, and I believe the most accurate word is family.
How Has Global Shaped You to be the Individual You Are Today:
My confidence has grown incredibly. I’ve also developed a much better sense of the world, politics and other religions/cultures. I’ve grown in many different ways throughout the program.
What’s One Thing You Would Have Liked to Know About Global Before the Program:
C2N costs some money, no matter how much they say it won’t… it will.
