Interviews at Gasworks Park
Our Japanese orientation intern, Satomi, used her time at our FIUTS event Community BBQ to meet international students and find out more about her future friends. Read her interviews here and meet two of our students!
Hi, I’m Satomi and I’ve been working at FIUTS for 6 weeks as an intern. Did you join our FIUTS event “Community BBQ” at Gasworks Park on September 18th?
I’m posting my first FIUTS blog because I interviewed some people at the event! The view from Gasworks Park was so pretty and it was a really good place to make new friends and have fun conversations. Just like you guys who went to the BBQ, I met lots of wonderful international students and alumni there. So I’d like to introduce some of them to you and I hope this post would be a great opportunity to get to know your future friends!
