Hey everyone!
Next summer I have made plans to study abroad in South Korea!
If you know me, you know I LOVE traveling and cultural activities. After researching study abroad trips through Ohio State University, I finally found one I absolutely love! 
Now I'm sure you're wondering why I chose South Korea, right? 
Here's the answer: 
A couple years ago I was introduced to the art, music, and films being produced in Korea and I was very intrigued. It led me to do more research on the country, even taking some courses on the culture, history, and language of S.K. at OSU. It is such a fascinating thing to learn about and the culture is rich. After graduation, I am planning to teach English to the children there for an extended period of time. By studying abroad I will have the opportunity to do a bit of a test run and see if I will truly be able to handle living there with the obstacles a foreigner is bound to face in a new country. I am extremely passionate about this, and would very much like to take this step. Aside from the teaching aspect, I have the goal of inserting myself into the art scene there. Getting connected to artists across the globe could be a tremendous help in finding success as an artist. Maybe I'll even try submitting things to galleries there, why not? (That'd make me technically internationally known, right? cool xD) .
SO, this is kinda where you come in; This 6 week trip in total is estimated to be about $11,000. I know it's a lot of money! A lot of money which I really don't have right now. I am working on finding scholarships and grants along with putting back money from my job, but I'm not sure that will be enough. If you would be willing to help me out by donating literally anything at all, I would be so very grateful. Seriously.
If you want more information on the trip and the budget, I've included a link...or feel free to ask me questions directly. Thank you so much for taking the time to read this...and maybe even donating?  Thank you!
