The Talking Mountain

At first I was a bit worried about my stay in Korea. Everyone seemed unknown and unique. All I can remember is being so nervous and puzzled. I have learnt that home away from home isn't easy at all. Perhaps, it was thoroughly  emotional . But, upon arrival to  Park Hotel , day-by-day, things around started to change –became more exciting, more lively and more familiar. I read so many exciting things about Korea long before and happy to experience that same on my own feet. It was possible due to all the APCEIU staff. I was deeply humbled by the kind gesture of you all. I was touched on many occasions.   Perhaps, it was honestly a long chapter of life to get such a rare opportunity that was extremely filled with great lessons of learning and indeed a very expensive experience of Korea.

I would educate my students about the very basic values to save our resources for future generations. My lessons would comprise local to national to int

As the lady in pure blue introduced her one hour program, many seemed weird and ennui on the topic - SEEDS ! Moreover, she started with listing four important elements of life – water, air, soil  and  sun . She claimed that the fifth important is the " seed" . I am very sure many of us have never realized the importance of  seed  although climate change is a very common topic and issue happening across the world. However, as she rolled deeper into the contents of her lecture-cum-demonstration, it started to become better and lively. And she could finally grab the attention of the floor. She didn't let anyone sleep nor hang-up with their phones. Looking at the degree of explanation and the presentation, she seemed very passionate about both the issues -" Climate and Seeds ". Interestingly, she was quite knowledgeable in  nurturing healthy seeds, which she termed as " Native Seeds" .   But to me, this lady was great and inspiring, meaningful and applic
