My Host Family!

Host Family
My Host Family!
Hey everyone! I’m in America, living my dream — and it still feels so unreal. Yesterday, when I woke up, I literally had no idea where I was or how I even got here 😂
I have an amazing host family of 4 people — I’m the fifth one :)
My host mom works with the same exchange program that brought me here. She’s also the coordinator for another girl from France who’s here right now. Plus, she’s a substitute teacher — which basically means she fills in for teachers at school when they’re sick or can’t come for some reason.
My host dad is an obstetrician — he helps babies come into the world.
I also have a host brother, Caleb (15), and a host sister, Madelyn (14). They’re awesome!
We’ve also got two dogs, Jules and Buddy. I already love them so much. Buddy tries to sneak into my room every night — that’s so funny! He loves being held, unlike Jules. She enjoys pets, but all that cuddly stuff? Not really her thing.
Feel free to drop your questions in the comments or DM me. See you in the next post!

Try it yourself — who knows, maybe you’ll be the next exchange student with a story like this!
