Trip to Changwon City, South Korea

Hola,

It's been quite a summer.  I had an awesome trip in July with 7 of my students to Changwon, South Korea.
The trip was coordinated through Jacksonville Sister Cities Association and gave students the opportunity to live with a Korean family plus visit the schools and experience the culture, geography, and warmth of the people of this beautiful Asian community.  We are already planning a new exchange for this school year. If you would like to see what life is like on the other side of the world,  please let me know!
