Traveler Bio

Hello everyone, my name is Faith Webb and I am currently in Seoul, South Korea studying at Sookmyung Women's University. I am enjoying my time here and can't wait to tell you all about it through the Reach The World program. I was born in Liberia, which is located in West Africa, but I moved to the U.S. when I was a kid.  

I have always been fascinated with other cultures because I experienced two completely different cultures as a kid. In school, I had friends from different parts of the world and I had some really good friends from Korea. When I came to college, I decided that I wanted to study abroad, and I chose Korea because of all the friends that told me about it. I am here now and I am really excited to make friends in Korea as well as to show you all what it's like to live in Korea! Gamsahapnida (Thank you) and I hope you're excited to go on this digital journey with me!
