ROTARY YOUTH EXCHANGE STUDENT

It’s always great to hear from our Youth Exchange Students, and to receive feedback on their experience in their overseas post.
Charlotte has just returned from Burgundy France, where she had an amazing 3 months. She was warmly welcomed by her host family, who live in rural Burgundy, and together with their animal menagerie, Charlotte felt right at home.
Visiting Paris, and sampling iconic venues such as the Louvre, Eiffle Tower, buzzing around in the fabulous Metro were unforgettable experiences. Other travel experiences included a trip to Dijon and Montpellier.
School days were long! 8am starts and 5:30 pm finishes. Charlotte was much more at ease with the French language by the time she returned to Australia.
Our club is grateful for the mentoring provided by P.P. Elaine Price, who continues to support both incoming and outgoing exchange students.
Both Charlotte and her mother Susie expressed their deep thanks to Rotary Preston for sponsoring Charlotte and for the hospitality offered.
