I’m so glad that you’re enjoying America!! I’ve talked to you a couple times before, and you seem like you’ve adjusted quite well! It’s amazing that you have the courage to live in a different country alone without the safety of your home and family! Welcome to America!

I feel the same way about Root Beer. I hate it and always will haha.

Why did you decide to go to school in america in the first place? I envy you, I wish I could go to school in a foreign country.

Welcome to America. Glad to know you’re liking it. I had some French kids come stay at my house over the summer and they would only tell us about how great Europe is in comparison. Good to have some Europeans who don’t see America as a bunch of pigheads. Cheers.

It’s awesome to hear that you’re enjoying your time here! It seems like it would be a lot of fun to travel abroad somewhere, but it sure seems like a lot of work! Yeah, my friend lived abroad in Germany for a year and she told me how she had to explain to a few people that some slang words were the same. It was pretty funny to hear. xD

Hope you continue to enjoy your experiences abroad and, as said by many others, welcome to Cali! ^^

I think this is really cool that you are moving to a country all on your own, and in a way I envy the fact you have the courage to do something like that. You actually haven’t met me yet, but from what my team members have said you are on my soccer team, which is amazing…and apparently your the only reason we won the game YAY! I really look forward to meeting you at practice, and i completely agree with you about root bear. Welcome to Cali

You’re so lucky to be traveling around! I absolutely love to travel and I hope I can visit Germany some day. Welcome to California and I’m glad that you’re enjoying yourself at MA. Go Bears!

Wow I want to go to Eurpoe to see what it’s like over there. It seems so much cooler then here. Although it could just be the adage “things look greener on the other side” or something like that. But also it’s great that you wanted to learn about us Californians for yourself. =)
