How far we are from our homes! How difficult to learn a new language! How difficult to be immersed in a culture totally different from ours! Will I be able to adjust to life in Germany without my family present?!

On Wednesday, 23 February 2022, I arrived in Germany without knowing what was waiting for me: another family. Adelia, Esperance, George and Louis are my family. Today, after being here for three weeks, I have the difficult task of saying goodbye to them. My heart aches deeply because in this short time I found a great support from and with them. I arrived knowing nothing and I leave them knowing many things.
I did not understood the meaning and importance of the Volunteershouse until I arrived. It’s about camaraderie, being united, supporting each other.
I love them so much and I’ll really miss this team.
This family is the best gift that life has given me. Thanks!
