Seen staring across the grounds, North Korean guards was surreal to say the least. Here was the exact place where only months ago an international incident happened when a North Korean guard was shot as they tried crossing the border.
Further to my surprise, they took us inside the blue buildings, allowing us to take pictures with the South Korean soldiers who were frozen still. I had trouble sleeping this night as I was constantly rerunning this experience in my mind. I cannot wait until I can share this experience with my students. This is how these experiences have changed me.
TT: What an experience! How have your travels impacted you in your career, and as a person? M: Every international experience has been nothing short of life-changing.
Beyond the pictures, the immersive cultural experiences, one of my most beloved parts of these opportunities has been being able to travel with like-minded individuals. I continue to be truly humbled as an educator as I continue to meet some of the most awe-inspiring educators.
My career essentially has two eras thus far, pre-travel and post-travel experiences. TT: So beautiful. What advice do you have for teachers who are dreaming of travel, or travelers dreaming of teaching? While people on the outside may believe that obtaining these travel experiences are as simply as signing up on a short form where everyone is accepted, little do they realize the amount of time and preparation that goes into applying, while often not succeeding despite the amount of work put in.
I truly believe to make your own path in life. This creed is something that I bring into my classroom and I hope to continue to personally pursue throughout my career.
