Lauren's Video
We are very happy to present to you Lauren's completed video project, "Family Time," narrated in both Derija and English! She showed this video to her homestay family as a goodbye gift before she left for the trek on Sunday night. Firsthand details from Lauren to come...

Comments
this is the most amazing digital story Lauren, your darija sounds so impressive, and you have truely captured and shared a slice of your experinces including your 2 wonderful famlies in States and Fes, I want to meet your sister (!), I think anyone watching this funny, touching and cool story will surely know that you have already fullfilled what you set out for...I hope I am right. Good luck for the rest of the semester, keep your enthusiasm soaring just as we see it here.

Lauren,
This is wonderful! Thanks so much for giving me a glimpse into your world this semester.
Living in another country and having to make yourself understood in another language is without a doubt the best way to learn to see the world through different eyes. I've done it twice, and I'm so glad you have the chance to do it, too.
Love, Aunt Martha
