I had a blast having a cultural interview with Omar. As a Korean American, Omar wanted to know more about my background as well as what shaped me as a person. Among the questions he asked was, “Do you consider Seattle more of a home or Seoul? This question made me take some time to think about myself. I couldn’t decide where I should call home. While I’ve lived in Korea for a longer period of time, I feel more comfortable in Seattle as I’ve lived there more recently. He thought it was very interesting that I lived in two countries as it’s a rare experience to live in two places. Additionally, he asked me how I feel about living in my third home in Connecticut. In response to their questions, I told them that it had been an interesting journey getting used to the new place and culture, but it was also a great opportunity for me to learn something new.
