    I''m about to return to China soon, and I feel like I''ve made many memories and gained a lot of experience. When I go back to China, I hope I can find a good job thanks to the experiences I''ve gained in Korea. I had a lot of fun during this time. I think the gap year allowed me to experience many things.

    The reason I chose the gap year project was that my study abroad in Korea had ended and it was my last summer vacation, so I wanted to stay in Korea longer. Looking back now...Through this project I met various people and deepened my understanding of the work.

    First of all, this project is a very good one.Being able to live in another city for two months is a great experience.That''s why.



    During my participation in this project, I had both good and bad experiences. But I think they were all good experiences for me. I met many different people at the guesthouse and had lots of conversations. And I became more skilled at the work. As a foreigner, I was scared of answering the phone, but I''m not scared anymore.



    Also, I had never raised a dog before, but I made many memories with dogs here. Many things happen at the guesthouse every day; sometimes I couldn''t handle them, and sometimes I handled them well. My personality has also become much calmer.

    I was always grateful that the younger colleagues I worked with for a month and a half helped me while working.And the manager was considerate because I am a foreigner. For example, when there were many inquiries about group reservations and rooftop management, since I''m not fluent in Korean, he told me to leave those to him.




    The place I worked at is a guesthouse located in Hongdae, so many foreigners come. Among them, many are Chinese, so I made many friends thanks to that.

    I''m about to go back to China soon and I feel like I''ve built many memories and experiences. When I return to China, I hope I can find a good job because I''ve gained a lot of experience in Korea.

    I had a lot of fun. Thanks to the gap year, I had a time to experience many things.
