Mary delighted us recently with her enthusiastic presentation of her 12 months in Taiwan as a Rotary Exchange Student, sponsored by our club.
This warm and generous young woman was a breath of fresh air as she recounted her experiences;- learning to speak Mandarin, living with five different host families, adapting to a culturally very different society, not to mention totally changing her dietary habits! Mary surmounted huge challenges, and remained very positive throughout.
Mary has returned to Australia and is completing her schooling in Tasmania. We congratulate Mary on an outstanding effort, and wish her well for what will be, no doubt, a wonderful future.
