► COORDINATORS: TARGET
Generally, Hawaii is famous as a place for families and couples to travel, but living in Hawaii for a month through the Gap Year Project is recommended for office workers in their 20s and 30s who are tired of their busy lives and do not have time to reflect on themselves, or for women who are preparing for a job change. Escape from the repetitive daily life, busy days, and gray city, comfort your weary mind in the green forest and emerald sea, and revitalize yourself through various activities! Also, during your break, you have the opportunity to upgrade your English skills, develop a unique hobby, and meet foreign friends from all over the world! I would like to adapt what a famous broadcaster said to college students and introduce it to office workers. "Dear workers, I know it's really hard, but you really need to save up and go on a long-term trip at least once. I still live with the memories of going to Egypt when it was peaceful." Let's heal and recharge in Hawaii and live diligently with the memories of Hawaii for the future :) |
