Welcome back to the Off Duty Diplomat Bonus episodes! In the last installation, you met my friend and former diplomat Kharmika Alston.

In this episode we are still with Kharmika as she discusses how the Trump presidency impacted her in her work at the U.S. Consulate in Amsterdam and her decision to leave the diplomatic service. Please note, she’s originally from Greensboro, North Carolina (it'll come up in the episode).
