#21 🇸🇬 Stuck in Singapore, Dance Team, Craving Community - Britney Thong (4K)

In this episode we are joined by someone who was unsure about her future after high school. Following the persuasion from her Father she finally decided to give the U.S. a try, where she took the leap of faith and never looked back. Her college experience took a hit when she got stuck back home in Singapore for her entire Sophomore year. Despite this major challenge she returned to the US for her Junior and Senior years; where she joined the dance team and finished off her Chemistry Major. After graduating this person hung around Sioux Falls and sat on the couch for 3 months waiting for her approval to be allowed to work in the country. A very rocky journey but one that shows great resilience. I love this person’s energy and it shines through in our conversation, listen for yourself. It’s time to go Back to College with Britney.
