Hi guys!! My name’s Jeehyun (sounds kind of like “gee, hon” :D ) and I’m the newest member in the C/R program. I read all the introductions from way back in April, and now I'm even more excited to meet all of you. Although it is quite late, I’m going to introduce our Romanian program director, Kinga, with whom I chatted on MSN a week ago.
Kinga lives in Oradea, Romania, a city close to the Hungary/Romania border. She is 22 (her birthday is the first day of Orientation!), and finished University last year. Currently, she divides her time working at a dubbing studio and volunteering. In her volunteer work, she takes care of homeless children and families and organizes activities for them. For instance, she’ll be taking 50 kids to a festival in Budapest in May, which all seems just amazing to me. All I can say is that she’s doing some life-changing stuff. Aside from volunteering during her spare time, she takes frequent trips, learns French, and, according to her, makes her 10 year old sister angry. She gave me some great advice too. I’ll just share them right here:
1. “First of all the most important is the communication: if you have any problem, tell it to your family. If they cannot understand what's wrong, call me or send me an e-mail.”
2. “Don’t be afraid to ask: understand that we are here to help you and not to be some dictators or something like that.” :D
Kinga seems awesome and I can’t wait to see her (and all of you ) in June.
