- In her talk, Professor Stasevicius explores the concept of identity to different people, and how travel is unique in exploring other’s as well as our own identity. Her presentation places a particular emphasis on the distinctiveness of travel as a transformative journey, offering a unique lens through which we can unravel and comprehend not only the identities of others but also delve deeper into the layers of our own selves.
