Be Yourself and the Rest Will Follow
I believe that throughout humanity as a whole, our similarities greatly outweigh our differences. Being only 23 years old and having never lived outside of my native West Virginia, I had no idea of what to expect when I took a job teaching English in Valladolid, Spain. I had gotten my bachelor's degree in Spanish from WVU in Morgantown, and had taught a couple of classes as a grad student. It wasn't the language difference or the responsibility of teaching that filled my thoughts on my first journey away from North America. It was a fear of somehow being inherently different. I couldn't explain it, but I tried to research as much as possible to keep my imaginary fears from becoming realities.
