What is important is “heart” and “passion”. Even in an environment where communication is not possible through words, make use of gestures and through trial and error and the ability to act, communicate with the people on-site to conduct over 300 surveys and accomplish the mission. Through FIRST, I learnt not to fear failure and the importance of conveying your feeling to another person. I improved my English and I wish to continue speaking to others without hesitation in cross-cultural environments, whether it be in APU or the wider world.
