*Sigh* I just want to repeat a thousand times. It just sounds like a dream. What's Montebelluna you might ask? Well, it just so happens to be where I'll be spending my second semester abroad!!!!!!!!! :D yes, I have received my host family placement! Now, out of respect for my host family, I won't be mentioning their last name in this blog in an attempt for privacy for themselves, as I do not know yet if I have permission to mention it by the family. I will say this though, I will be staying with a wonderful family of 5, which includes two younger host sisters for me, who are 16 and 14, right around my age! I couldn't ask for a better placement. Their town seems lovely and different. Located in northern Italy, I'm sure to learn a lot. The best part is that both of my host parents are teachers, which hopefully means that learning Italian will be easier with two people who are so qualified to help teach one what she needs to know.
Righ now I am so excited, I am shaking. Some of that is probably nerves as well. I mean, it's all starting to come together. I'm going to Italy. It seems almost impossible. Is this really my life? Do I really get to live out this fantasy of mine? It's hard to believe that just a year ago, I had never even heard about the AFS program, and now it's preparing to help me embark on this new chapter in my life. And I can't wait to rise to the occasion. To emerse myself in this other culture. I know that it's going to be tough and sometimes I'm going to miss home so much I might want to cry; but to me, it's all worth it to experience this new adventure. I know I will grow so much as a person while in Italy and I am so excited to see what kind of person I will become from this experience. I just know it'll be someone amazing.
