Today, a group of CCIP exchange visitors took an evening excursion to the Museum Mile, a lovely stretch along 5th Avenue filled with museums and other fine-art institutions. Together, the participants visited the National Design Museum and also sampled the wide array of food available in the neighborhood.
Eugenia, an exchange visitor from the Nanyang Technological University currently interning at the Human Services Council, was impressed by this part of the Upper East Side. "The neighborhood felt so cultural but also very friendly. It seems like a smart neighborhood, and everything is easy to walk to," she said. Indeed, the Museum Mile is known for its well-kept sidewalks and pedestrian-friendly accessibility.
Erwin Wan from the National University of Singapore echoed Eugenia's sentiments. "It was a most pleasant place to spend an evening," he said. Interning at Colon & Peguero LLP, his days are hectic so an evening of Museum Mile strolling was a welcome break in his schedule.
The group returned together to Flushing in the evening in time to prepare for the following day of interning. Also in the plans for tomorrow, a NYPD safety talk will be given for the exchange visitors so they can better understand ways to remain fully safe while residing in New York City.
