Een jaar High School in Amerika!

Ik ga een heel jaar High School volgen in Amerika. In dat jaar woon ik bij een gastgezin en ga ik gewoon daar in de buurt naar school. Veel buitenschoolse acticviteiten bijwonen is een top idee!

Dit doe ik om mijn engels te verbeteren en voor het avontuur dat je tegemoet gaat. Het is erg goed voor je zelfstandigheid en het wordt geweldig :)
