13 hours on on flight
the 12 days on the ground
With a host family an experience I’ll never forget
It will be in my head forever
Applying to go was a big risk
Not getting in was even a bigger risk
But the perseverance was in me and I never quit
I was nervous for waiting for my letter for 1 month nothing came
But one night with the mail in my hand I mps in the top left corner
I jump with joy in my head but I was think oh no I didn’t get in
When I opened the letter i finally jumped with joy as
I saw Congratulations.
