When I was little, I traveled a lot with my family. When we visited The Netherlands, I felt drawn to this country. I could really see myself living there when I got older, so I decided to go on a high school exchange to The Netherlands.<\/p>\n

My host family was amazing! They were so nice and helped me with everything. After only two weeks, I started to feel at home already! I loved spending Christmas with them, celebrating birthdays, going on trips, and having family dinners.<\/p>\n

The school was sometimes hard, but the teachers were open to help and didn\u2019t expect me to be at the same level as the other students right away since I had to get used to the Dutch language first.<\/p>\n

Making friends at school was easy! People in Brabant are just very welcoming to exchange students.<\/p>\n
