My vision for Young SIETAR is to reach a broader audience, diversify its activities across both academic and industry sectors, and raise awareness about intercultural communication among people from various backgrounds.

What I love about YS:
I love the youthful spirit and the cultural diversity of Young SIETAR members.

One of my most amazing travel/intercultural experiences:
I used to be a slow traveler in my 20s, spending one to six months in different countries. One of the most memorable experiences that has shaped me today is that I spent nearly two years living in Moshi, a small town in the foothills of Mount Kilimanjaro in Tanzania. I learned many lessons about nature and wildlife, indigenous wisdom, intercultural intelligence, and geopolitical matters.
