All about my life in the U.S during the second semester

Our first family cruise to Mexico

In the month of January, I went on a 3- day cruise to Mexico, Ensenada with my host family and the extended family It was like a dream, being on a ship, sailing across the Pacific Ocean We had so much fun, and I also got to experience a lot of different things. I got the opportunity to see Mexico and its totally different cultures.

ACES Mid-year workshop in Atlanta, Georgia

In January, I also got an opportunity to visit Atlanta, Georgia. It was a 3-day Mid-Year Orientation. There were around 40 exchange students from all over the world. I made a lot of new friends. We visited Martin Luther King Jr. Museum, CNN headquarters, 1996 Olympic Park, walked on the important streets of the Civil Rights Movement, art museums and an escape room. Jason Daniel's speech during a conference made a long-lasting impact on me.

Better Understanding For a Better World (BUBW) Conference

I was selected for a leadership conference that was held virtually between 10 - 11 March 2023. The speakers gave wonderful speeches. There was a priest, a rabbi and an imam who gave us a great understanding about all the three religions. It was a great platform to freely discuss important topics such as politics, religion, ethnicity and differences and ideate on solving many of the problems in the world as global citizens

It was great working with great minds from all over the world. I performed a poem in Tamil and tanslated it in English for the audience. I was also the student speaker in the program. I am proud to have the BUBW certificate!
