Panama City, Panama

Panama is part of Central America and it is a beautiful, tropical country. It’s known for its beaches and its culture. It means a lot to me, since it has been one of the longest places I have lived in during my life and because it was the only place I felt I truly connected with my own culture.

New York, New York

It is really hard to describe NYC as a whole, the cultural and socio-economic diversity is almost unimaginable. You Have some of the most expensive real estate on the planet concentrated in really small space. Some of the most influential people on the planet are walking streets side by side with some of the poorest with no walls or barricades separating neighborhoods.

Seoul, South Korea

Often times, the city of Seoul evokes an image of a bustling concrete jungle. But more attention should be given to the quieter, more zen areas, such as cultural temples. Combined with the liveliness of the nearby small, tight-knit communities, I grew up calling this Buddhist culture my beloved home.
