Passage
Living in another country
My name is Brad Li. I’m here today to tell you about my experience as an exchange student in the United States last year.
I must admit that at first America was a big shock for me. Many things were strange to me: the language, the food and even the school. I stayed with a host family in a small town. My host parents, Mr and Mrs Hurst, were very kind. They organized a lot of activities for me in my spare time so that I wouldn’t miss home or feel lonely.
