Hi!!
Ok, why didn't I write a report before?? Because I'm a lazy person as
most of the people know me. I'm sorry about that. You know as they say
that Latin people are always late, but the majority of time we are
there…or we try. Hahaha
Anyway, my days here have been incredible. Even if we all know that
sometimes we have bad moments I'm not going to include them because
there is not as many as the good moments.
My first host family was a really cool family (the Easton's family).
They made me start this whole year with the right foot. Beginning with
my host mom that is from Ecuador, actually the same city where I come
from. She is crazy as me we had a great time together. My host father
was a lot similar to my dad in Ecuador. Their kids were a lot of fun
even if I couldn't spend a lot of time with them because of their
college. With this family we went through hurricanes and all that fun
stuff. We had three great full weeks with out power. We had a lot of
BBQ food. And we also celebrate my b-day. All of this was incredible,
new and funny. And I'm forgetting to mention my dog-sister Roxy. She
is a really nice doggy, sweet, crazy, and she also likes reggeton.
Then I spent two weeks with a nice family also. They are really
different because they are all Americans in that house. I went to the
King TUT exposition, in Las Olas, Fort Lauderdale, and also with
Conny. Also they took me to the boat parade on December. All of this
was really nice.
Christmas was totally different from my country. You know that I'm
crazy and my family back in Ecuador is also like that, just think
about being with 22 or more Belen at the same time.????? Hahahaha.
Anyway I had a great time with my counselor's family (John Aquino).
They are really nice people (all small as John hihihi), funny and
crazy. They have an Italian resemblance and they always do Italian
food on Christmas, which was really good. And also Santa brought me
cool stuff this year.
Now I'm in a new house since January. This house is a really mix of
cultures. My host father is from Germany and my host mother from
Malaysia and they have a little girl form Florida. We eat great food
from Germany, Malaysia, Ecuador, and macaroni and cheese hahaha. I
have a nice time with them. For me this is totally different because I
have never had a little sister. I really have to say that there is a
lot of fun moments as moments that I want to cry because I'm not
patience enough. But I'm learning and trying.
Another part of my experience here has been Conny. She is a really
cool person and just because she is almost like me. And now we are in
the same school and I'm really having fun. I'm really going to miss
her. The other day she proposed me with a bunch of flowers if I want
to be her new sister. I know maybe is too much information for you but
I think that this is funny.
Finally I want to thank the Rotary Club for every little thing that
they have done for us. Every single trip has been wonderful, even if
they never put me in the same room with Conny.
Thank you and I apologize for being so late with the report.
Maria (Belen) Horra, Ecuador.
