ศาลาชุมนุม

[Mali2006]

Hey all! My name is Hope and I used to be an exchange student in Thailand through the Rotary Club about 8 years ago. I'm living in the states now.

While I was there I learned to speak, read and write in Thai. I got really good at it. I've been maintaining my skills while in the states through correspondence with my friends in Thailand and also engaging in the Thai community in my hometown.

I'm also a student of the German language and am currently working on a paper that is a comparison of Goethe's Faust with a Thai translation of it. This website has been so helpful to me! I've been using this website for years and I never realized I could sign up to be a part of it.

My Thai nickname is มะลิ and my Thai given name is อารยา.

I feel like a part of me became Thai when I was over there, so I'm excited to be a part of this online community. I hope to continue reading books in Thai and maybe one day get into some translation work.
