East Asia

As you may know, one of the unique opportunities we had just a couple of months ago was to travel to one of our international partnership locations in East Asia.  Our partnership with this city is relatively new—our movements in St. Louis has been sending short- and long-term laborers here for the last two years.  It was exciting to go see people who we knew when they were students now reaching college students in this city!

Almost every day that we were there, we would walk down to the local market to eat “street food” for breakfast or lunch.  It was so yummy!
