My Country Assignment is...

Still don't know? The answer is: Taiwan!!! Going to Taiwan is so exciting, but it's also pretty scary. There are so many reasons to look forward to going to Taiwan, one of them being that I'll most likely learn Mandarin! When I got my country assignment I was surprised, excited, a bit nervous. It took awhile to sink in. I will be going to a country that is about half the size of Indiana. With a population slightly bigger than that of Florida. It's also an island, and I have never even been to the ocean. This will be an amazing opportunity to try all kinds of new things; food, language, culture, weather, geography, and so much I haven't even thought about. My friends, especially my best friend Alice, have been so excited for me it's hard not to be excited too.
