Interview to start the day

I started the day with an interview, I think it was my third one this week. Two South Korean college students came by to interview me about TNKR. It was absolutely delightful. They had prepared the questions in both Korean and English, asking about various details of TNKR.

After the official interview was over, we talked a bit more about various things. These days when I give these interviews, I recognize myself as being the old uncle giving advice to young people. They came for an interview, but I invited them to stay in touch beyond that, to update me about their lives and to come meet me again if they would like to talk.






Giving Tuesday preparation

Two more South Koreans volunteering for our Giving Tuesday Korea event on December 1st spent time at the office today. They are so delightful and upbeat, they add positive energy to the office.

Chosun Monthly magazine [Korean language]

  Chosun Monthly Magazine has made an announcement (in Korean) about the Seoul Honorary Citizenship award that I received on December 9, 2022.  Our Korean staffers say that the magazine is a big deal in South Korea. Here's the overall roundup of media about the award. In the next two months, I have extended interviews coming up in two different magazines, one in the USA and one in South Korea. Both articles will be in respected publications so they should raise awareness of FSI's work that your support makes possible. * * * Support FSI via Stripe or PayPal . https://donate.stripe.com/3cs28F5IAcc85IAaEF or PayPal .
