RYLA!

So the past weekend I had the privilege of going to a Rotary event called RYLA. It stands for Rotary Youth Leadership Awards, and although I didn't leave Busan, it felt like I did.  I went to the same event back in the US last year, with a very different (but equally amazing) experience.

Both programs I partook in consisted of physical challenges, lectures, and a dance/preformance time, and amazing people. I am so happy that I had the experience of working with my team, learning/performing a dance with them, and tackling the physical challenges together. Everyone I met over the course of the weekend was super enthusiastic and welcoming. It was such a great group of people.

The lectures were mainly in Korean, and to be completely honest I doodled through most of them, but there was one lecture on Anthropology in English and it made me remeber how much I missed learning in a classroom and having questions to ask. I really miss learning! I'm not going to deny it.

All in all, I met amazing people, learned a lot, and had tons of fun. I would definitely do that again!
