Almost time to go home....

It's almost time to go home,and even though I knew this day would come I still feel very sad. Now that's not to say that I don't want to return home, because I am very ready to, traveling has been quite taxing, but I have grown such a love in my heart for Korea. When I came here to Korea I did not know Korea, and Korea didn't know me, but in time we got to know one another, and I have fallen in love. In the future there will be many more countries I will experience, but Korea will always have a special place in my heart as my first foreign nation.                                                                                               Aside from the fun and adventure, when I reflect on my reasons for coming to Korea being that I was looking to refine my cultural sensitivities and test if I would be able to fit in and thrive in Korean culture,I feel very proud to know that I performed well. Before I came I studied many Korean customs large and small, which served me well. I feel like I stood out. A good way and even developed a reputation with the staff and lecturers at Ulsan University. I hope that this serves me well in the future to have these contacts and references serve me well in my career. But even if they never do, I will enjoy the relationships and memories that I have made for the rest of my life.
