All of us were scared out of our minds at the idea of coming to stay with a host family. I was so scared because i had no clue what to expect.
Once we arrived we were greeted with singing and confetti, and my fears suddenly melted away. I have never seen a group of people so happy to see me. Let alone a group of strangers.
My family welcomed me into their home and handed me slippers that matched theirs to wear around their house. I went to bed soon after. The next morning when i was woken up the mother of the family said good morning to me. This surprised me because the night before she knew no English. She had learned it that night so she could talk to me. Every morning i am given a breakfast to take to school with me and every night the mother prepares a special snack.
Tonight i tried sticky soup(it was amazing!). My sister played the piano for me and helped me play a few songs. Her mother sang along.
The family is constantly telling me how much they love me and i feel so welcomed. They shower me in gifts and smiles! (Today they fitted me for a dress they are ordering!).
The school is the same way. Every time you walk down a hall or into a room you are greeted with the most welcoming smiles and showered with love notes and gifts!
I am really enjoying my time with my family!
