Name: Yvette Deane
Description: This is an eportfolio to describe my experiences abroad and explain what I’ve learned about the new culture I was immersed in. When I first started the blog, my intention was to collect my experiences of these five months so I would be able to review them later on. But as I began to work on it, it became more than a public diary. It became a place where I could analyze my culture shock, document the places I’ve been, and evaluate the plays I’ve seen. I would like to continue writing in my blog over the summer, where I will be working for the department of Edu in Washington DC. While the differences between NY and DC may not be as jarring as the differences between America and London, I believe there are always aspects of location that I can learn from and analyze.
