It’s official . . . I was chosen to be one of 15 teachers in the country to participate in the Fulbright-Hays Group Abroad Short Term Seminar in Russia sponsored by the University of Illinois.
This will be such an exciting journey for me – personally and professionally. We are visiting Vladimir, Morum, St. Petersburg, and Moscow.
I’m starting this blog to document my experience of the seminar and trip. Hopefully, I will have significant access to the Internet once I’m in Russia.
The blog address will be given out to my family, friends, colleagues, and students. Please feel free to comment at any time.
До свидания – см. Вас скоро (Good bye – see you soon). 🙂
Hanging out in Russia for the summer 
CONGRATS!!!! We are so proud of you… and can’t wait to hear stories and see pictures of the great trip you are going on…
What a once in a lifetime experience… Be safe… only talk to cute strangers… just kidding… talk to everyone you can, see everything you can see, do everything available…
