| Introduction | Hi Blogworld! How are you? My name is Andrew. I am a Korean Adoptee from Minnesota. I recently graduated college with a BA in German. I am currently working in Korea as an English Instructor. In my freetime I like to hang out at Barnes and Noble with my friends and either look at magazines or read. We also like to eat out a lot or just chill at one of our places. I am addicted to Korea Dramas, mostly historical ones. I love learning languages and I also like to learn about a variety of stuff. I've been to Korea (Seoul, Daegu, Kyeongju, Haeinsa) a few times, I've done a study abroad for a month in Japan (Kyoto, Nara, Osaka, Hiroshima, Tokyo, Najima) and for a semester I was in Trier, Germany. During that time I visited Bonn, Koblenz, Cologne, Frankfurt am Main, Amsterdam and Luxembourg. I believe in fighting for social justice. I am passionate about racial justice and GLBT Issues affecting people of color. I have an interest in politics. After my Korea experience, I hope to work for the U.S. State Department or the United Nations. I feel that working as a simultaneous conference interpreter or diplomat (foreign service officer) would be fulfilling. |
