This is a blog about a Texan living in Istanbul, Turkey for a year-long Rotary youth exchange. Originally from Lake Jackson, Texas, I've graduated high school and before moving on to the University of North Texas where I'll major in International Studies (peace studies), I've chosen to take a year for growth, experience, cultural awareness, independence, compassion, learning a new language, and an education in becoming a citizen of the world. Here's to a year of adventure and awakening.
