About the event
Jessica Dias will be at Gallery 40 to share her travel experience. In 2021 she embarked on a 15-month solo trip to Europe, and she was motivated by her deep interest in the cultures of other countries. "I wanted to do this in a meaningful way so I steered away from the role of a tourist. Instead I focused on developing relationships with people to learn first hand about their ways of life and cultures. After visiting 9 countries, I came out having developed many friendships, and hopefully a greater understanding of different cultures." Light refreshments Free Admission
