Favorite memories: People!!! People of Montana!!! Teachers and students, host-family and others - all of them very-very kind, friendly and I like them very much. But the second favorite memory - it is nature of Montana - I like (and I think it is forever) the strong beauty of mountains, National Park, etc. I miss you, Montana...
During the whole year I was working for ACCELS as alumna of PiE-2003. And this collaboration will continue all next year. I work at school and all of my students now know that Montana State is the very interesting, beautiful and great country. It is very important to give a lot of new and right information about kindly, friendly people of Montana, about culture and native people, about Lewis and Clark, about our new friends in your country. I held for my students Power Point Presentation courses. And during this year they create different presentation for each theme (Mongols, Seldjuks, etc.) I work with and for History Teachers in our DC to help them as a methodologist to learn modern methods of teaching social subjects. And we collaborate with Elisabeth Miller from Maine and Fren Winfry from Florida. Also our friends from Montana always help us, maybe we'll have a lot of new projects and I say: THANK YOU, MONTANA!!!

Now I moved back home to Iceland right after I graduated and tried not to get a job right away (I wanted a vacation!). But after two weeks and tons of phone calls I caved in and got a job in the developing department of a pharmaceutical company.
