A First and Final Reflection as a Machida Fellow

By Ava Prince ‘18, JFOU Fellow

Along with journaling, the pandemic took away a sizable chunk of my time as a Shansi fellow. It feels unreal to say goodbye only a little over a year into my fellowship. How do I write my first reflection and my final one at the same time?
