Our Asian students

Yesterday I saw our former exchange student from Thailand, Noh, online. He's been gone for about 2 months now, and is swamped with school work and testing. It was good to see him on line, even though he was very tired. He didn't seem quite as discouraged as past times we've chatted, although I think he is still overwhelmed with everything.

And we got a package from our Japanese student, Mai, who was with us from 2001-02. She frequently sends us Japanese snacks--a favorite around here is Topo--a kind of chocolate stick covered with pretzel coating. mmmm She also sent a note to our new exchange student, Inga from Moldova, and a t -shirt for Tim for his birthday.

I still e-mail Carla, our girl from Bolivia, but we don't hear from Marcelo from Ecuador as often. Maybe soon.

It's fun to travel around the world without leaving the front door.

Till next time,
