Aside from ISB BGIC, this is the second Model United Nations activity I have been to, and although I was away for only a week, it made a huge impact on my life. For one thing, it was the furthest I’d been from home ever, and I was going without my family, just some of my closest school friends (and the chaperones, of course). Several days of intense, thought-provoking, and occasionally heated debate ensued, although that was by no means the limit of this experience.

Just of few of the great memories I have include late-night conversations in the lobby of the Doha Marriott (the MUN’s venue), exploring Dubai airport with some friends, visiting the Museum of Islamic Art, seeing a whole new country in a completely different part of the world, and, of course, meeting all the new people with whom I still maintain correspondence. I don’t think it would be an exaggeration to call it one of the best weeks of my life.
