Join us as we sit down with Russian journalist and Semester at Sea alum, Kira Tverskaya. Having lived in Israel for two transformative years and navigated the fast-paced world of Russian news networks, Kira's perspective is also uniquely shaped by her experiences at sea.

Kira embarked on multiple voyages to explore diverse cultures and destinations worldwide. All contributing and directing her career as a journalist, Kira shares poignant stories and reflections on the profound impact of her global travels.

From the bustling streets of Cape Town to the serene shores of distant ports, Kira delves into the magic of each destination, offering firsthand accounts of the people, places, and experiences that shaped her worldview. As a Russian-born individual with Ukrainian heritage, Kira also shares personal insights into navigating cultural identities and forging connections across borders.
