Project Director - Courtney Bauder
G'day Mates...My name is Courtney Bauder and I am leading this group of students to Australia this January. I am very excited because my mother is also coming on the trip with us. I am a teacher at UW Oshkosh and I love to travel. I have been lucky enough to travel all over the world. I have worked with children when I lived and taught in China, Japan, and Germany and have traveled all over Europe, east Africa, southern Asia, and central America, and I love to make friends with people from different cultures. I have never been to Australia before, so I am hoping that you and my students can help me learn about this wonderful place 'Down Under' as I try to teach you some things too.
