      What are some lifestyle choices or decisions you’ve made that most people would consider “unconventional”? — taking a different path, coloring outside the lines, etc. If those choices are in hindsight, how do you think about them now?

      Decided at the last minute to study in the U.S. rather than in my home country. I was initially planning to only move to the U.S. later on in my life, but in retrospect I’m glad I came here for my undergrad.

      did either of you feel any kind of duty to stay around home, like Pepe mentions?https://twitter.com/syk0saje/status/1146654840539344896?s=21 …

      I wish I had gone to college in the states. I didn't consider the possibility of migrating until only recently. I think part of the reason is that I was always raised to believe that I owed something to the country I grew up in and that leaving diminishes my potential impact.

          Not quite; it was more that going to college in the US seemed unthinkable and so out of reach that I didn't even consider it. (We could afford it and I could have easily gotten in MIT). I thought I wouldn't be good enough and wouldn't be accepted anyway, so why try.
