Welcome to The Millennial!

Let the bantering begin.

Why am I doing this?

I always loved storytelling. I also enjoyed bantering as much as deep diving into philosophical and spiritual conversations. But these activities would only informally happen in person with close friends.

Unfortunately, I haven’t been able to interact with friends in this way for the last few years; I got married, moved to the United States, and became a parent. Not only was my physical location far from my close friends but I was suddenly burdened with responsibilities.

With my best effort, I tried catching up with friends over Zoom, but I experienced how difficult it was to set up a meeting in a different time zone. I also learned that being a distance away, life is vastly different, so the quality of conversation wasn’t on par with my expectation.

Nevertheless, I still miss the conversations that I had.

Since I can’t keep up with everyone, I decided to send out weekly newsletters to share what I’m up to, and hopefully, you get a kick out of reading about my life.

So here we are.

I named it “The Millennial” because a) I’m a millennial and b) I’m hoping that my point of view can be relatable not just to close friends but to other millennials.

I humbly invite you to the stories of my adventures.

I also haven’t taken a selfie in years.

Sincerely,

Seongwon.
