My Study Abroad Dream

21 August 2009

Dear Google, I love you so much it hurts.

I've been thinking about study abroad, especially after speaking with my language partner, who did so. Because I have children, I can't really do a semester- or year-long program, but I could probably manage a summer program. But, if by some miracle, I could do a whole year, I found the perfect program.

The National Security Education Program (USA) offers scholarship opportunities for study in many countries, including Japan. Their funding covers all expenses, up to $10,000 for a semester or $20,000 for a full academic year. In return, you commit to working for the US government for a minimum of one year. Pretty sure I could handle that!

Studying in Japan for any length of time may be little more than a dream, but what fun would life be without dreams?
