The school that I am studying through, the School of International Training, has programs throughout the world. While I am in Fiji, there is also a program in Samoa (another island nation in the south pacific). We were fortunate to meet up with these students last night. Their program takes them through a program in Pacific Studies, starting in Hawaii, moving to Samoa, spending a week in Fiji, then moving back to Samoa.
It was really great to meet with these students because first of all, we are all afraid of the other American students in Fiji, studying through the other programs. We see them and run in the opposite direction (they do the same). So it was nice to talk about America, what it is like to be living in the Pacific as an American, and just to meet some cool people. I even met another Minnesotan who goes to St. Kates! Sam, she doesn't know you (as she hasn't been on campus all year).
