About Me

My name is Frank Newman, i am in the class of 2009. I am from Clare Michigan, where I grew up on a family farm. My major is in accounting and after Alma college I would like to get an accounting job around the Mid Michigan area.

Reason for going to Ecuador

My reason for going on this trip to Ecuador is to have a great experience that I will probably never get the chance to have ever again. I hope to experince the culture of a completely different place that is so far away. I also hope to have a great time with all of the cool people also attending this spring term coarse.

Expectaions

During my stay in Ecuador I will be living with Thomas Stock. I expect that Quito will be an awesome cultural experince. I can't wait to see how different this country will be. I love horseback riding but haven't rode a horse since last summer. I am very excited for that and expect that that will be fun. The trip to the volcanoe will be cool too. I think that the coolest part of the trip for me will be staying in the cloud rainforest and the galopogos Islands. I love nature and i think it will be really cool to see some animals that are found no where else in the world.
