Darcy Eades is welcomed at the airport by family and friends as she returns from her three month stay abroad. AFS Student Enjoy s Life in Switzerland With a rush of questions Arlington High’s own Foreign Exchange Student, Darcy Eades, was wel- comed by her family for the summer to Switzer- land. Actually, Darcy had two families while in Switzerland. Her first family was the Praffs. There were four in the family, and only the oldest daughter spoke some English. When the Praffs were called to Denmark, Darcy moved into the home of the Grafs. All in this family knew English, and Darcy felt more at ease with them. In Europe there is an image that all Texans live in the country with oil wells. Of course, Darcy had to deny this. Among the traditions present in Europe that are not prominent in America were walking and shaking hands. While in Switzerland, Darcy aver- aged walking six to seven miles a day and wore out two pairs of shoes. No matter where you go, if you see someone you know, you go and shake his hand, smiled Darcy. When asked about the main quality needed in an exchange student, Darcy quickly responded with, Adaptability.” Each student has to be able to adapt to different food, climate, and customs. Darcy Eades proudly displays a Swiss national costume which she got when she was the foreign exchange student from AHS. II
