Another blog by an SIT PIM 65 easing into her discomfort, exercising reflective practice (praxis), navigating a multilingual nation with dirty-english, bad-russian, and sub-romanian language skills, while working with teachers in a post-soviet structure. What can she possibly do to instigate changes that will benefit young people here in school and society?

Making your own map
