I believe it is safe to say, that there is biased information out there around Russia socially and geopolitically. One may even presume that the Cold War-era disdain for the nation runs through the very veins of America. With the US elections ending now is the time to listen to the voices of those who hail from nations we don't normally hear from whether they hold our belief system or not. In this episode, Veronika shares with us, her perspective as a Russian immigrant with graduate education in Florida and NYC while she scales the corporate ladder. She shares with us the people she has met that inspired her, and the difficulties she has faced after leaving Moscow around English learning, managing our complicated healthcare system, and finding a home in a difficult NYC even though she misses her family the stern faces of Moscow.
*Important to note this episode was recorded over 10 months ago and Veronika, has a more stable visa and outlook on life.
