My
host family is the most amazing family I’ve ever met, besides my
own, of course. My host dad, Xavier is extremely athletic. He goes
running at 6am before work every morning. Every weekend, he’s
always doing something active. This past weekend, he went skiing at
Vercors. He’s very social; every week he has a designated night to
play Bridge with his friends and comes home very late- such a party
animal.
My host mom, Caroline, is a precious little housewife. She
works part time from home, but she still gets up every morning at
7:30 to get her day started. She cleans the apartment every morning
and runs errands every day. I don’t know what kind of errands she
runs, but she leaves the house for a good amount of time every day.
Both
my “parents” are extremely social. They often take weekend trips
to Lyon to go to the theater, meet up with friends, eat dinner, etc.
Today, Caroline had a couple friends over for lunch, which is nothing
new at our apartment. Every time there is company here, Caroline is
eager to put on a show and please everyone- she’s such a cute
woman.
My
host parents are very encouraging of me to travel. This past weekend
I went to Geneva, and Xavier and Caroline were just as excited for me
as I was to go. Traveling around Europe is so easy with the train,
there’s no reason to not travel. Geneva was absolutely amazing and
I can’t wait to continue traveling around Europe.
