What do I even mean by “global mindset?”

A global mindset is the ability to see and understand the world from different perspectives. It means being open to new ideas, embracing diverse cultures, and recognizing how interconnected we all are. With a global mindset, you’re curious about the world, eager to learn from others, and ready to think beyond borders.

In The Global Mindset, we explore the world through various lenses. You’ll notice that the publication is divided up into a few different sections:

  • World News Weekly is where I’ll dive into 3 of the latest international trends and news shaping our world each week. This section could include big news stories, small community/event highlights, business and financial highlights, international law changes and cases, or anything in-between.

  • Global Flavors brings you culinary adventures, giving you easy-to-follow recipes that will allow you to taste the cultures of the world.

  • Global Bookshelf will be where I recommend, review, and rave about different, globally significant books (that phrase will be defined broadly…). We might even set up a Global Mindset book club, so you can recommend books to me and we can read them together!

  • Globetrotter’s Guide offers tips, recommendations, and stories for the curious traveler, wherever your destination may be.

  • Global Perspectives showcases diverse voices and opinions from around the globe, including personal highlights, stories, and guest interviews.

  • Language Lens takes you on a linguistic journey around the world. Along the way, you’ll get language-learning tips, insights into linguistic issues, and individual language highlights for the language nerds—like me—out there.

Why should you read what I write? Who even am I?

Hmmm…that’s a great question.

Hi! My name is Garrett Sebra, I am a passionate explorer of cultures, languages, and global connections, and I’m your host here at The Global Mindset.

I am a law/grad student who is currently pursuing a joint J.D./Master of Arts in Global Studies. I love international/multicultural exploration; I lived in France for 2 1/2 years, I have traveled to several other countries around the world, and I am an avid linguist. In addition to English, I speak French fluently, Spanish and Portuguese at an advanced level, some conversational Mandarin, and some basic Japanese. I plan on continuing to add to this list throughout my life!

With my background in international law and global studies, I’ve spent years studying how our world is intertwined. Through The Global Mindset, I aim to share my curiosity, insights, and (relative) expertise with others, offering fresh perspectives on international topics, culture, travel, and language. Join me as we explore the world together, one story at a time.
