So last summer I went to Taiwan, Korea, an Japan (to teach english, visit family, and pure tourism respectively), and I really really liked it. I would love to go back with a good excuse (preferably with some sort of financial support). Does anyone know of, or know of a place to look for, summer undergraduate research opportunities in Asia (particularly China, Taiwan, Korea, or Japan)? Although generally speaking my math/physics interests are G.R./Differential Geometry, I would be interested in most things!

Thanks for your help!

Just in case people come across this thread in the future, I found this REU: http://www.phys.ufl.edu/ireu/schedule.html , which involves going to UoF for an orientation and then going off to some foreign country for gravity research.
