Hello! I am Cievia! This is my pre-departure video before leaving to Chiangmai. I recorded this video on August 11th and never uploaded. However, this was a one-shot take and I think it went pretty decent looking through it a week after it was recorded.

But I have been thinking about what I “could have said” and “did not say” therefore I plan on recording and uploading another video that goes into deeper into details with my choice to study abroad in Chiangmai, Thailand.

Thank you for watching this. AND for reading this….
