  • Every day at ‘Mensa’ in TU Berlin

    Last winter break, I studied abroad in Berlin at Technische Universität Berlin (TU Berlin) for two weeks.

The next…

  • Finnish Nightmares and Pierogi Delights: My International Strategic Management Workshop Experience in Poland

    When I first applied for this program, I had so many things I was anxious about such as how do I connect with people from different cultures and backgrounds and will I be able to adapt to these cultures.

  • Singapore’s Sizzling Summer

    How it all began Starting my journey at the end of June, to begin my new student life as a first-time foreigner in Singapore. To be very honest, I was quite frightened to begin living alone since it was my first time away from my family and friends but at the same time, I could…
