How has your Summer been? Have you traveled anywhere for your vacation, or are you planning a trip in the near future? In this episode, Linda talks about her recent trip to ‘down under’, Australia and New Zealand (Aotearoa), where she suffered a near heart attack from quokka’s cuteness and proudly donned a Korean flag during the 2023 Women’s World Cup games even when Korean players were not playing (find out more in the episode!). Also, Linda shares that she powered through seasickness with Gin Gin during her trip and wrote a letter to BTS RM! Are you ready for Linda’s spectacular travel story?

True friends don’t come by easily, especially when you are all grown-up and do not belong to any schools or organizations. In this episode, Linda and Heena talk about various aspects of friendship they have experienced.

Linda has become quite good at finding new social groups through frequent moves but confesses challenges in developing the relationships further. As an ‘introverted’ social butterfly, Heena practices her socializing skills at work and alumni events. They also share the hardship of losing friends due to inevitable alienations and other life circumstances.
