Thursday Meeting Topic

<A name="[문서의 처음]"></A> Travel & Vacation    One of my most memorable trips was the one to Gyeongju in high school. It was a three day trip, so we were buzzing with excitement during the bus ride there. Of course, the important point of the trip was tours to Gyeongju's historic sites, like Bulguksa and Seokguram. The scenery was breathtaking and we learned a lot during the tours.    However, the trips highlights were a mini talent show and a campfire we had on the last day. The trip was all the more rewarding since our classmates were able to develop a stronger bond among one another.     I really like to travel. So i've been on a few backpacking trips. Two years ago, my college roommate and I went to Nepal and India for a month. We were on a shoestring budget, but it was unforgettable experience. That was how I caught the travel bag. Last year we hopped all over south-east Asia for three months, visiting Malaysia, Cambodia, Thailand, and Vietnam. It was difficult at times living out of a backpack and being tight with our money, but I got so much out of it.    Despite the culture shock, I came back to Korea with a better understanding of other cultures and more confidence. Although I blew almost all my savings from my part-time jobs on these trips, it was definitely money well spent.   Question   1.  Let's talk about your memorable travel and vacation. 2.
