In the second episode of the Exposure Talk podcast series by Global Engagement Office (GEO) FISIPOL UGM, we invited M. Scessardi Kemalsyah (Kemal), an International Relations student in UGM, to talk in-depth about his internship experiences in Indonesian Embassy in Denmark. More than a month of being in a land far away from home, and not to mention, during the winter period, he fortunately is also far from being resentful even when homesickness hits. He shares everything; from the specificity of the job, how to adapt, what to do when loneliness kicks in, to the Danish culture that you won’t find elsewhere! Questions from Instagram are also answered here. The talk is in Bahasa.

In this first episode, we invited Raditya Gumelar (Gugum), an International Relations student in UGM, to talk about his studies, social life, and many more interesting firsthand experiences during his exposure program in University of Melbourne, Australia. Having it described as a ‘melting pot’, Gugum highly recommends Melbourne as a destination to pursue higher study for its dynamic cultural differences and supportive studying environment. Relating to the current pandemic situation, Gugum also shares how he copes with quarantine, alongside with some itsy-bitsy tips to survive as a foreign university student there. The talk is in Bahasa.
