  • The American or Canadian Dream
    Aug 12 2024

    For this episode we took a trip south of the border, not literally, but figuratively, to find out what it's like to be an international student in the US. Turns out it's not that different, you just get more perks. Our guest Duy Nyugen left Vietnam at the tender age of 14 to pursue his “American Dream”. He shares insightful perspectives on the highs and lows of his journey - from language barriers to discovering a passion for entrepreneurship.


    Six years into his journey as an international student, Duy says his perspective has changed on what life in the West is like and also discusses some of the challenges and opportunities that have come his way as he makes a life for himself in the US of A.
