Counting Down
the Days; One Night Left!
I have been
counting down the days till I leave for South Africa for 10 weeks. Only one
night left! I literally cannot express in words how excited I am to finally go
there. Also, I am really thankful for Steff’s family for letting me live with
them for two and a half months. I have only known Steffi for a few months, but
it feels like I have known her whole my life; and I have only met her parents
once, but I already feel so comfortable with both of them. I cannot wait to
meet Steff’s little brothers and friends and family!
Steffi
constantly reminds me of how warm it is there and that I should bring lots of summer
clothes. It is 10pm now, and I’ve put all my clothes and
presents and necessary stuff in little stacks in my room and I only need to put
them in my suitcases. I am so exited, only 12 hours and the plane takes off and
only 24 hours and I’ll be in South Africa. Tomorrow morning I’m going to meet
Maxime, Cemmie, Kian and Maarten at the airport. Together we are going to start
this adventure..

BeantwoordenVerwijderenWe are SOO happy to have you as part of our family!! You have only been here for 3 days, but it feels like we have known you much longer - Paulie, the dogs and Glitter wont leave you alone :). I know you are going to make the most of this experience!!
BeantwoordenVerwijderenDear Dionne, Although we have already met a few times before, we do not really know each other. I hope that by reading your blog I can get to know you more! I am sure this journey will be one of the greatest adventures of your life. It was touching to read that you call Steff your exchange sister. I think you already have a great experience: you got to know how good it feels to get someone special from life. Someone who was a stranger before but became an essential part of your everydays... Enjoy each day of these few weeks! Nagy Orsi
