    Hey y'all! 
    This is the first 'real' episode of this podcast and I had such fun planning and recording it. In this episode, I cover the two questions I get asked the most as an international student - why did I choose the US and do I want to stay! I hope it is helpful or insightful :) Please let me know other topics you'd like me to cover. Follow me on Instagram @pallavijaniani for regular updates on the pod and my life!!
