In this episode, I’m joined by exchange student Tasha Stevenson who has spent the last year studying abroad in South Korea and has been navigating the outbreak and impact of COVID-19 whilst studying away from home.

This is part of my ad-hoc series on COVID stories where I explore how the pandemic has affected different elements of life and share stories from people across all walks of life.

We talk about:

• How the outbreak of COVID-19 impacted her time studying in South Korea.
• The experience of a pandemic whilst studying abroad and being away from home and how this event impacted all of her fellow exchange students too.
• Why she chose not to return to the UK and complete her studies in South Korea.
• How her university education had to be adapted to suit the new environment.
• Advice for those who are considering a year exchange placement as part of their degree.
