Why? Because this has been the best time in my life and always will be. 1 thank my great host family for that, the best ones you can find, and you the wonderful people of R.O.V.A. I will remember every minute and everything I have experienced here. How could I forget? 1 admit that I was a little nervous before I came here. I was going to meet with a new kind of people — Americans, living in a rural Midwest community. But now 1 know that even though a few things might be different, over all we are the same. We are all people with feelings, likes, and dislikes and 1 love you for that. I do feel very much at home here. Like many other exchange students I hope I can come back some day. You know that you are always welcome to visit me in Sweden. I’d better stop because 1 am already crying. Let’s keep in touch.
