My Travel Story

by: Granny in Korea Start Date: Nov 22, 2017 - End Date: Jan 10, 2018
Hello! I am a 26-year-old psychology student from Turkey, who really loves to explore different cultures. I live in Istanbul, Turkey. Last summer I had the opportunity to be part of an internship at Seoul National University, which is the top university in South Korea. And I started to write a blog page and opened an instagram account for sharing my experiences and promoting Korean tourism. At that time, I found the application for the Olympics. After lots of exams and interviews, I was selected as one of the volunteers for the upcoming Olympics (both for the Olympics and Paralympic games) in South Korea. I’ll work as an assistant which is the highest level of volunteering! I'm honoured to have this chance however as I am a student, I cannot afford the expensive flight tickets. Therefore, even a small amount will help me reach my dream! I want to be a sports psychologist in the future so these games mean a lot to me to conquer my dreams; both professionally and personally it is going to help me understand more about the psychology of sportsmen and different cultures. The photos you see are all taken by me while I was travelling around South Korea. I am looking forward to seeing your support. Thank you!
