https://uclaluskinabroad.wordpress.com/2015/11/09/ganesha-chaturthi

Each region represents another side and quality of Panama’s region and peoples that created a vast perspective of what this country has to offer to a visitor or local.

August 14, 2015. THE RISE OF THE HIGH-RISE IN CHINA. The first thing I noticed about China was the ubiquitous forest of cloned high-rise residential buildings. Apparently, I am living in one of them – on the 14. Is China trying to find its own definition of modernization or is it mimicking the Western formula? Posted in Urban Planning.

October 29, 2015. October 31, 2015. Finding answers where there may be no solutions. MURP ’16 and International Practice Pathway Fellow. At the outset of this blogging exercise I posed two questions that I hoped to answer during my time in Thailand: (1) given the consequences of global warming, should remaining arable land be used to grow food or plant trees?
