In light of publicly “launching” my online portfolio and the close of the New Media Practices class, I’d like to reflect on my work this summer.
My travels with PADF and the OAS this summer were amazing and enlightening. This was my first actual “business trip” so I learned a lot about business trip etiquette. I only traveled with my supervisor to one of the four different countries that I visited with PADF and the OAS this summer. I have to say, it’s a little unnerving to sit on a plane with your boss for six hours at a time.
I traveled to the Dominican Republic and Trinidad completely by myself. This is the first time I’ve been abroad completely alone, and I feel very proud of myself. Of course, I learned about the culture of all the places I visited. I think that by now, I’ve pretty much mastered the kiss that many Latin Americans use to greet each other.
