Holiday plans: `I'm leaving the Netherlands on December 26 with my friend Edwin ter Wijlen. We're flying to South Korea for a three-week trip that will include sightseeing in the big city of Seoul and catching-up with a mutual friend, Jin Lee. We are also planning to `hit the slopes' and go skiing for a few days. We also want to visit a small island located off of the coast of Korea. Edwin and I met Jin Lee at the UT last year when he was an exchange student with a group called AIESEC. We showed him Enschede and now he wants to show us his country.'
Greatest accomplishments in 2007: `I think my involvement with AIESEC, an international exchange program for students, was great. I tried out for the national group in Rotterdam and did not make it, but in my role as a regional sales representative, I accomplished so much.'
Goals for 2008: `I'm striving for excellence and good marks in 2008,' Looking further ahead, Travaille adds, `I can envision myself in 2009 in a foreign country finishing my bachelor's assignment. I want to study abroad to gain new experiences and learn about other cultures.'
