When we signed up to be a host family we knew that we'd get to be a student from another country, learn about her family, her culture, her school, language, education, and travel. We figured that we would try some fun new food and hear some of her favorite music.
We knew we'd get an international education and we were very open to and excite about it.
What we totally hadn't bargained for is getting to know some of our neighbors right here in Bedford!
Within the very first week, we'd had more interactions with our neighbors the Inz family then we'd had in the 20 yrs since we'd moved to Bedford(and they happen to live less than a 1/2 mile from our house!). It's been nice to interact with and I'm sure it will be nice to get to know them better.
We think it's wonderful that we've had the chance to spend more time with the wonderful Inz family. Susan, Jonathan and Becca have been extraordinary hosts for Evelina. Ice cream social, texts, carpools and emails... have helped to bring us together.
Jonathan, Susan and Becca, I am looking forward to having you over for game nights, gabbing and more in the future.
It's so nice that you are the first host family, now you get to keep in touch with Evelina until next summer!
