An experience abroad

   AN EXPERIENCE ABROAD

      You or a friend of his has lived abroad? Imagine how it would live abroad for some time: the tension and expectation upon arrival, the initial difficulty to communicate in another language, adapting to a new culture ... Finally, a succession of exciting experience that will never be forgotten!

      I went to Boston to live an American family for two months only. How exciting! - I thought. How scared I felt!  But i went all the same.

     One of the things I remember quite clearly was my arrival: to start with, I missed the train from New York to Boston! That was trouble, although the family was there to greet me.

    When I arrived at the family house, I lost my voice, so nervous I felt. For three days I did not say a word. Now i know that was an unconscious way to get familiar with the English they spoke.

    Fortunately, after one week and people in the house began to understand me.

    How nice and enjoyable the second week was! 

    The big morning breakfast, a snack at lunch at time and early dinner at 18:00 become a routine. The shops were interesting, the cheeseburger was wonderful, the sports were attractive and in a short time new friends were like the old ones.

     This experience was unforgettable!
