Host Family!

I got my host family! I'll be living in a village called Reken, which is close to the western border. I have a host brother who's 16 and a host sister who's 14. My dad is an engineer. The family enjoys taking trips and walking their dog, who's a golden retriever. The school I'm going to has over 1,000 kids, which will be a major change from the 128ish in the Stuart Hall upper school. (woot woot!) I don't know too much more! I'm so excited!

Under 50 Days

Unter 50 Tagen! Maybe that was correct grammar. Maybe not. I actually have been practicing my German, though! Pat on the back for me. I've been using duolingo and to be perfectly honest, I don't really have much to write a post about. I don't have my host family yet, but that'll happen any day! 47 days left in the U.S. and I'm insanely excited but also pretty nervous. I'll post again once I get my host family, but until then, Bis bald!
