I wish to acquire skills in socialising with people from different cultures, how to extract key information from our surroundings and to work better in a project team through our research project.

The personal goals I would set for this strip would be to immerse myself in Korean culture, gain a better understanding of how technology is present in the different facets of Busan and apply the skills I learn in Busan into my daily life.

I hope that Koreans and Korea itself to provide a host of learning opportunities for myself as a student, including some that I wish to apply to my daily life back in Singapore.
