    Visas, Flights and Jumping the Gun!

    August 25, 2024 /

    By Malaikha West, Seoul National University, Seoul, South Korea Dear Readers, As you embark upon your journey across the world, there are many things you need to consider. So many jumbled thoughts of things you need to do, applications to be submitted, payments to be made, that beginning your trip can become daunting, sometimes even stressful.

My trip to New York in December, as a layover on my way home. I went to the top of the rock, watched a show, and visited the MET.
