This has been a very long journey and the anticipation and what my mind predicts makes me wonder what is waiting for me.
The 27th of August, my mom and I flew to Boston and stayed at the Hampton near the airport. Boston is a very interesting city, with an intellectual mix of archaic American history and a 'Harvard' atmosphere, which is not snooty, but rather just relaxed and self aware.
I met the other kids yesterday and they are all fun to be around. It was reassuring to finally meet some kids who have some of the same doubts, hopes, wonders, and excitements that I have had. Carol Campos, a representative of CIEE showed us around Boston and we went on a Duck Tour, which was a vehicle which travels on land and water. I learned a lot about the city and all the while I got to know the three other kids better.
I am looking forward to the day(s) ahead of me when I arrive en France!
