This week our three culture vultures discuss topics on relocation, Apple's new font and the UN's Art & Culture conference. Fresh off his move into a new pad, Kam ponders on the emotional impact of relocation and points out a few peculiar cultures practices upon embarking on this journey; Matt enlightens us with his personal experience with a new typeface launched by Apple, the San Francisco font; and we round it off with Ann Lee and her comments on the recently concluded 8th World Summit on Arts and Culture Kuala Lumpur 2019, organized by the United Nations.
