I am lucky to have been chosen to receive the 2010 Okinawa Peace Scholarship through the Youth for Understanding USA program. My teacher from East Hamilton, Brenda Coe, nominated me and encouraged me to apply. I will spend over six weeks in Okinawa, Japan living with a host family and being immersed in their culture. I will go to school there for a few weeks, but I'm not sure what I'll be studying yet. I hope to be able to play on a baseball team during my stay there. I guess I am most worried about the food since it is so different than what we eat as Americans.
I have created this blog to document and archive my travels and my experiences during my trip.
