Fifteen U.S. teachers will travel through Thailand and Cambodia in AsiaPacificEd's 24-day travel seminar program this summer (July 14-August 6, 2006). While in Phuket, the teachers will have the opportunity to come together and share the experience with our high school students from AsiaPacificEd's newly launched youth exchange program (P4Y). While in Thailand, the travel seminar will include an excursion to Lanta/Phi Phi Island to see the impact of the 2004 tsunami, as well as a 4-day homestay and job-shadow with schoolteachers in the ChiangRai area.

Indo Teachers in East Canton Ohio

Writen by: Senny Alwasilah
East Canton is a small town. The people in this area like to say that the place is more than a village then a town. We were the first "visitors" coming from the other side of the world so why they were interested in knowing more about us. We were just like "celebrities" for them. We visited east canton elementary school and students like to stay close to us. they gave us hugs every single minutes and any time they accidentaly meet us along the corridor. They love us and in return we love them as well. we learn somehing new living with American family which is litle different from our "rule" in our family life. Being in Ohio is being celebrities.
