Predeparture

I'm looking forward to my studies in Korea, and can't wait to see what the next two semesters have in store for me! I'll be trying to keep an up to date blog of my time abroad.  So far I have decided to attend KyungHee University in Suwon, which is just outside of Seoul, on the south side.  I am still going through the application process, but am eager to see the campus in person.
