March 19-30 Exchange Student

I survived my first ever exchange student living in my home. He was only 13 but my 17-year old son took to him immediately. He was like the brother my son never had. It was quite interesting to learn about another culture and to try to communicate with our live-in. The first few days were rough, but, by the end of his stay, he was actually using full sentences in English. This guy was a quick study. I would recommend this experience to anyone who may be on the fence about it. It will be very rewarding for you and your family.

So, as not to cause an international incident should he ever return to the USA and someone realizes what "choice" english words my son taught him, I'll Just refuse to say what particular country he hailed from.

Guess all you want, my lips are sealed!
