I was a bit skeptical about creating a blog at the onset of this project because I was and am not an avid blog reader, but I also thought that it would an interesting process to become familiar with a newish and popular form of technology. From start to finish, creating this blog has been an amazing learning experience. I have acquired a tremendous amount of new knowledge about the country of Bhutan, the Bhutanese refugee experience in the camps in Nepal, and about the conflict that caused the refugee crisis. All of this information has of course made me a more informed person, but it has allowed me and will continue to allow me to share this knowledge with others, including my students. Additionally, I have a better understanding of the experiences my tutee may have had during her stay in the refugee camps. Becoming better acquainted with the experiences of others in the world and in one’s own community is an invaluable opportunity.
