My Amazing Host Family

The McNeill Family

My name is Kristina and I’m an exchange student from Turkmenistan.

I want my host family to be the host family of the month because they are just AMAZING! We do a lot of things together and that fact makes me really happy because you understand that there people who take care about you and like you.

When I came to United States I realized how lucky I am. Being nice parents to me, treat me like their own child and help me to share with cultural features--that`s what I wanted my host family to be like. And my wishes came true. We travelled a lot with my host family. Not long time ago we went to the wonderful city, Chicago. It was long trip, what made our trip really fun.

Both of my parents are in military (my host mom is in Marine Corps and dad is retired Mariner, which makes me proud of them)!

I have two host brothers and two host sisters. They always help with stuff I don`t understand and they made me friends with a lot of teenagers.

Soon I will go back to my country and thinking about date of my leaving makes me sad. Because my host parents and siblings became close people to me. I shared my experience with them and they solved my problems, they always were next to me during whole year. So I want them to know how thankful I am.
