The First Lady’s Travel Journal: Make Your Own Mark on Our World

This post is part of a series authored by First Lady Michelle Obama to share her visit to Japan and Cambodia and the Let Girls Learn initiative with young people in the U.S. Find out how you can get involved at letgirlslearn.peacecorps.gov.

Along the way, I experienced the rich culture and history of two fascinating countries.
