Hard to believe, but this little blog here has been alive and kicking on the Internet for a full year now. It all started with this little post, letting the world know why I’m here. It’s been a great time so far. I originally created this blog not only as a way to keep track of my experiences for myself and my family, but also as a way to share with interested people the experience of being a foreign exchange student. If my blog has helped even one person to decide to study abroad or made their experience of preparing to study abroad a little bit easier then I am satisfied.

Here’s to another great year!
