Last week I got to go to my first New York City Bar Association event as a new member. As an LLM student planning to practice in the U.S. in the near future this was a very exciting and enriching opportunity, where I got to meet many interesting attorneys and law students from other universities. And also, got to enjoy delicious empanadas! Thank you to everyone that accompanied me that evening 🎉❤️.
