s01 | e03 Coming Home to Yourself

Four students that traveled to India and Guatemala this year, Tania Mostovoy, Khim Fuentes To, Jahmeil Ennis, and Jasmine Acevedo Guerrero discuss how your perception of home really changes when you are on a journey. Sometimes this can pose a challenge to your mental health. Other times, it is when you return and are forced into isolation after incredible adventures with people you’ve grown to call family that your perception of home changes dramatically. These students discuss those difficulties and more in this episode.
