Welcome! This Podcast is for you...yes YOU! The undecided individual living outside the USA, the confused and curious college student living in the USA, and yes even the distraught working class adult navigating the peaks and valleys of working in a foreign country. The L&SDistrict is for us all, the community of international students who make the bold move to relocate to the USA in search of better education and opportunities. This Podcast is hosted by two different, yet complementary women in distinct walks of life but thriving nonetheless. Lilian and Sharon, the cohosts of theL&SDistrict seek to share their experiences, struggles, provide nuggets and even things they wish they knew, in order to make your transition smoother. So tune in every two weeks on Wednesday as we dish and spill on all things concerning the International Student’s journey.
