    Hi, I’m a high school student soon to graduate, I plan on trying to get into on of the international colleges in Korea, (I currently live in the US) I plan to live in Korea during and after that, do you any tips on the best plan on how I should go about this? I’m currently learning Korean so I am able to live much easier there, and also dam the college is so cheap there compared to America lol

      Hi Angelena! It is kind of crazy how cheap college is in comparison to the US. I would suggest finding some groups – maybe on Facebook, for expats, students living abroad and those kinds of things to find people to connect with. Make sure to research visas and what’s allowed in terms of staying over there past studies. You may want to join the TBA Travel Tribe on Facebook and see if there are any ladies who have done this or something similar or are currently living in Korea: https://www.facebook.com/groups/947813952040668

  2. Hello, I am 53 yrs old and mixed-race African, European, Irish, Middle Eastern, and central Asian according to my DNA. although I have light golden skin that makes me look black. I want to take the TEFL certification and move somewhere in Asia. my ethnicity is going to be a big challenge to you have any recommendations also are there other bi-racial teachers or communities that will help me adjust . I don’t want to be double isolated and want to make friends.

      Hi Angelique! The TEFL certification is a wonderful thing and job to pursue! At this time, I am not aware of other bi-racial teachers or communities — but I am sure they exist! You may want to reach out to the ladies in the TBA Travel Tribe on FB to see if they have any feedback or know of any resources to help you out: https://www.facebook.com/groups/947813952040668/

Being a mama in today’s digital world is... stressful. Even though my little one, Oliver, is still a toddler, I already think about how I’ll navigate social media and screen time as he grows up. It’s such a different world than when we were kids, so having the right tools and info is so important!

That’s why I attended the META Screen Smart event. I wanted to learn everything about how we can not only build healthy screen habits for our kids and teens but also what tools META provides us parents—and let’s just say, there are a ton!

Some of these include:

Parental controls that let you set screen time limits
Content filters
Tech-free scheduled times
Monitor what your kids are seeing

This was such a fun event with META panelists, professional speakers, and everyday parents just trying to figure out how to navigate this ever-changing tech world.

Thank you, @instagram, for hosting me and sharing so much valuable insight 💡

Who else swears by packing cubes? 👋
••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••
@veken_api packing cubes have completely changed the way I travel! ✨ No more digging through a messy suitcase to find what I need—everything stays organized, compact, and easy to access.

Whether it’s rolling vs. folding, color-coding, or using different sizes for different categories, these little cubes make packing (and unpacking!) a breeze.
