Week One in Singapore
Hi everyone! My name is Logan Adams, and I’m Taiwanese, Chinese, Japanese, and American. My mom is half Taiwanese and half Chinese, and my dad is half Japanese and half American. Having a mix of identities like this makes me especially excited to be in Singapore for the summer - there’s probably no better place for someone with a diverse background to feel connected to so many different cultures at once.
My First Week in Thailand
Hi! I’m Madison, a Business major at the University of Oregon, and I’m currently interning as a Financial Analyst in Bangkok, Thailand. One of the identities I’m highlighting during my time abroad is living with celiac disease—a chronic autoimmune condition that requires me to follow a strict gluten-free diet. Traveling or living in another country with this condition adds an extra layer of planning, caution, and adaptation, and I wanted to share what that’s been like so far.
