As my trip is quickly approaching, there are many things I have been thinking of and anticipating through my travel. Although I have traveled to several different countries and continents, I have never been to Morocco or Africa for that matter. I am very curious what kind of culture exists there and I expect that with most countries, this is different depending on where in the country you are visiting. Something I am slightly nervous about is being a woman in Morocco, as I have read some mixed experiences about this online.
I am very excited to meet my host teacher and learn about the school I will be visiting and the students there. I am curious how education is valued in Morocco and whether teachers are valued, as I feel that is something that is a current challenge of our present-day education system here in the United States.
I am not really sure what to expect other than an unforgettable learning experience and am going into my trip excited, with an open mind, and very thankful and humbled to have such an opportunity.
