It's a little late but about two weeks ago I got an email from my first host family! First of all, we were all confused cause Rotary in CZE/Slovakia told us they would give us our cities once we complete all of their requirements, which most of us did. To be honest, I was patient about waiting but some people were sooo anxious about it. But since my host family emailed me, I ended up finding out over a week early! They live in the city of Trenčín! It's right on the border of Slovakia and the Czech Republic, and it's absolutely beautiful. There's a big castle on the hill, with the town center right below. I will have 3 host siblings, a 15 year old brother, and 23 and 29 year old sisters! My two sisters both live and go to university in the Czech Republic, so it will be just me and my host brother, Matej! In addition, my host mom is getting married with her boyfriend about one month after I arrive, so it'll be my first wedding! I have also gotten in contact with the YEO of my Rotary club there who told me I'll be year 3 in school (meaning I get to go on the class trip!) and also the Rotary club is going to be providing me with Slovak classes to help me learn. Almost all the other exchange students are in Eastern Slovakia, far from me, but I'm so happy with my family and town. Everything is feeling so real now!
