Life 100 Podcast

A master storyteller and engineer, Charissa took an unconventional path to graduate school in Thailand. Here she shares her highly unpredictable adventures full of twists and turns that will keep you guessing what she is going to do next.

“I didn't mean to end up in rural Thailand. In fact, I didn't even know I was going to be living there until I got off the plane. (It's a long story.)

But there I was, enrolled in a two year master's degree for mechanical and energy engineering in a place where nobody even spoke my language. I thought about quitting. Instead, I decided to try.

I taught myself Thai highly proficiently in less than 8 months. I explored and fell in love with a new culture. I wrote a whole 110 page thesis over downdraft gasification and got a master's degree! My passion for exploring cultures, loving people, and telling stories thrived.” – LinkedIn 

Listen to the story behind the hilarious, fascinating, and unpredictable Thailand stories. Let’s welcome Charissa!
