Chicago, Illinois - 2017
I started my american adventure in july of summer 2017. My destination was Chicago, Illinois, where I was hosted by a lovely family who lives in a small town near the Chicago. The family name was Roche.
I have not met familiy in person before I went there but we were in contact through the social network such as instagram and skype.
The trip to USA was long and exhausting, but I landed safely and my friend Eric picked me up on the airport, after that moment everything was pure pleasure and joy. My host familiy was great. Eric and me shared a big room and house was huge with the nice backyard. Whole family was nice and polite to me. They did their very best to make my stay in USA very comfortable. We played football on few occasions and we were one week at Wartburg University where I expericenced american education system which is great. However, we traveled a lot and had fun every free time that we got.
To sum up, I really had "an american dream" experience in the USA. My host family was awesome, the United States were great and whole Athlete Exchange program is a great program that gives young people like me to experience so many amazing things and a lot of unforgetable memories.
So, my advice is, if you get an opportunity don't think twice, TAKE IT!
