Senior year abroad rarely goes as planned — Pat Nimu's didn't either. Here's how she made it hers anyway.

We're welcoming our first student guest to Diaries of a Diasporian: Pat Nimu — bright, multi-talented, and radiating joy throughout the episode 💖. She opens up about how her time abroad turned out far more unconventional than she expected, and how she learned to embrace the twists, make the most of it, and live fully as she wraps up her senior year.

A shoutout to every senior and international student out there — enjoy this one, and don't forget to soak up every bit of college while you can!

Moving across the continent and starting life over in a whole different country will definitely give you some independence willingly or unwillingly. In this week’s episode, we hear about Lyncy’s journey in developing her independence when she moved. Her energetic and positive energy is so magnetic and hopefully, it rubs off to you as you listen and carries you through the week :) Enjoy!!
