Around the world

Last night we had a meeting with the exchange students who are here on scholarship. It was so fun to meet these students who are here, sponsored by the US government, to learn, experience the culture, and share their lives with friends and family here. These students are from Germany, the former Soviet Union, and Islamic countries. The US is seeking to build relationships with these countries that were former enemies in war or to build understanding where it has typically been lacking in the past. The students represented last night were from Germany, Indonesia, our own Molodovan girl, Russia, Ukraine, and Turkey.

It will be fun to build bridges with these students this year, and see where these relationships will go in the future.

Till next time,

Suzi
