Cool! I actually lived in Abu Dhabi for about two years, and let me tell you, its amazing there! I applied last year for a UK partnership award, and will be doing the same thing this year=]
Congrats! I was not selected for a UK Fulbright grant that I applied for this year, but I will say that I had the pleasure of living in Seoul for two years during my high school days, and woww.... I absolutely loved everything about my experience there. Your in for an adventure of a life time!!! congrats again !!!!!
Just out of curiosity, how many people here have applied more than once to become a finalist? I am seriously considering reapplying, but i dont know if i have the heart or patience to do so...
