This is a pretty cool experience!
This is a pretty cool experience. I have lived in United State before, but not with a hostfamily. I have a host father —–Henry. He is a cool guy. He’s very different compare to the host family I’ve heard before. He tries to treat us like friends. We always say he is 70 outside but 17 in mind. I’m his seventh exchange. But the first Asian. He helped me with a lot of stuff. I also have a host brother—-Dominik. He was the 4th exchange of Henry. We do a lot of crazy stuff together ha-ha. The first week I got here. Henry took me and Kuba(who’s also a exchange of Henry and Dominik’s related brother. He went back after a month later.) to a beach for vocation. We went to a restaurant in the hotel for dinner. When we went in the restaurant we found out something was wrong. Cuz everybody else was wearing extremely formal. But we were wearing a swimming pants and T-shirt. After the excellent dinner we found out why. The Bill was 130$!!!!!!!! Hahaha!! Henry almost got a heart attack. We left a HUGE tip. After that dinner Kuba and I almost laughed off our ass!!!!!
The school part is totally different compare to the school in Taiwan. Right here the school starts at 8:10 and ends at 3:10 when I told my friends the school hours in Taiwan. They all looks surprised. They couldn’t believe we have to go to school that long each day. The teachers all treat me pretty nice!!!!(I learn from this first you gotta act like you speak English poorly so the teachers will try their best to help you out) There is a lot of crazy stuff going on in school you just gotta experienced by yourself cuz there are too much to tell at once!!!
In United State, the holidays are FUN! FUN! FUN! Halloweens! Christmas! Plus we’ll have a lot of days off because of those holidays (that’s why it’s fun!!) We even celebrate chinese new year!!!!! Actually I think most of the exchanges will be frustrated at the first several weeks. But it’s gonna be fine!! JUST CHILL AND ENJOY IT!
