My homestay was fantastic! So many topics for discussion, so much new information and knowledge about American lifestyle, a visit to the basketball game, quiet atmosphere of the house, friendly attitude, delicious cooking, some interest towards my country and, of course, the members of the family who were very hospitable.

I enjoyed the concert in Toledo school of Art. I was overwhelmed by positive emotions that gave a new burst of energy to my body and my mind. Having the opportunity to perform in public is a good way to demonstrate your talent. These students do have talents.

Thanks to Brigid now I know how some of my students feel at the lessons when they do not understand me, when they do not know how to read and pronounce the words correctly, when they cannot remember the words and "get lost" in the classroom. I experienced all these situations.

Toledo: in the science museum I felt as if I were a child, however, I couldn't overcome my fear (I mean riding a bicycle on the rope); in the museum of art I plunged into beauty; the shelter for the homeless made me experience mixed feelings; ice hockey game though was exciting!!!!

I expected more from experience with my host family.
