I am going to do two, one month intesive courses in Moscow to boost my Russian language skills. One beginning in March 2017 and the second will be in the fall. I am taking courses at home online, but there is nothing like being in country to get the most out of language training. The course I have chosen is the highest quality for my time and money while still being flexible with start and end dates.  I am working as much as I can handle and still get straight As as a full time university student and also taking language study in addtion to regular undergraduate courses. This language training is imparative for my future and further education. I hope to go to a graduate program and want to be competative as well as be better connected to the world around me. I work hard, study hard and love to hike and cross country ski.

    I am planning on going to Russia for only the 2nd section of my original plan ( I was going to go for March and September or October). But, I needed to work more and try to save for this trip!! I am working hard and all my grades for my final, and spring semester of my BA were A's but now it's time to try to finalize all the things for this trip and the funding for it. I am going to go to Moscow State University for 4 weeks in October and am offering 30 minutes of family or solo photos for $24 to those in Whatcom County or the Lower Mainland to raise money for this trip. This includes 10 retouched digital images and the photo session.
    I am hoping to have a great grad school applications ready early this winter with hopes for a admission to a great grad school in International Affairs or International Relations.
