Japan's just the beginning...(but need help getting there)
My Travel Story
I am in school to get a Public Administration’s degree and hope to one day become a mayor or senator and effect change. I want to travel to Japan to learn more about their government and see if there isn’t something that us Americans could gain from doing some things similar to them.
Lisianna wants to get a Dr. in Linguistic Anthropology, which means she really just wants to learn how people use words and the progression of language. Japan is just one of the many stops she would like to take in her lifetime. The same goes for me!
I think that it is important for other and younger students of color to see two students of color take this trip, to let it be known that it can be done! While out cost may seem high please keep in mind that this page is for BOTH of us to travel and your donations will be helping two students go abroad.
While in Japan we will be taking a Japanese learning class along with progressing our own personal goals.
