My classes run from Monday through Friday — starting at 11 a.m. on Monday and ending at 12:15 p.m. on Friday. After class, I head to the airport, boarding either the subway or a train. 

Travel time often doubles as study time — whether in-flight or waiting at the gate. I typically take an Uber or a shuttle to my hotel after landing.

Generally, the total travel time from my dorm to my hotel ranges from five to eight hours, door-to-door, depending on the airport and hotel locations. However, flight delays, such as one that resulted in my arriving at 1 a.m., can extend this timeline significantly.

After finishing on Sunday, I head straight from the property to the airport to catch my 9 p.m. flight, arriving in New York around midnight. I then take a train or subway back to NYU, ultimately returning to my dorm between 2 and 3 a.m. on Monday.

在高中时，我经营着自己的旅行社。

通过这段经历，我对客户服务和豪华酒店品牌产生了深深的崇拜。去年我入学纽约大学时，我就决定作为一名大一新生在酒店行业寻找实习机会。

然而，考虑到纽约市豪华酒店的实习机会相对稀缺，我将搜索范围扩大到全美国。我在三个不同的城市获得了面试机会：亚利桑那州的斯科茨代尔、拉斯维加斯和佛罗里达的那不勒斯——所有这些面试都在期中考期间。

参加这些面试是一个巨大的赌注，需要我投资超过1500美元买机票，并在同一天往返每个城市。但是，我知道我必须对自己下注。

我收到了两个offer：一个来自那不勒斯的丽思卡尔顿，另一个来自拉斯维加斯的另一家酒店连锁的企业办公室。我一生都很钦佩丽思卡尔顿，所以选择前者是一个相当容易的决定。
