One Amazing Thing I've Done
Spent a year of high school in Japan (Which included going to a 100% Japanese school, and lived with a host family). Immersed myself in the language and culture. It was the hardest, but definitely the best year of my life!
Teach, Learn, Share
Always up for conversation, and learning about the country I am in! (Who is also a avid baking enthusiast!) Although I am no expert, I do tutor Japanese occasionally, and can also help with English! :)
