My placement

Hello everyone and welcome to my blog!

Finally the time has come, I got my placement and now I know where I will be in the USA!

I will be spending my year abroad in the city of Norfolk in the state of Virginia.

The call with my placement:

It was nine o'clock in the evening when my cell phone suddenly rang. I took my phone and looked at the display and there I saw the number - it was my organization iE.

Full of excitement I picked up the phone because I knew now was the time. I finally got the long-awaited call with my placement.

On the phone I was told that the placement process is finally completed and I may finally be informed of the family and the school.

I then received the exact information in an email. There were the contact details of my future host family and my future school.

Together with my parents, I immediately contacted my host parents and we talked on the phone via Google Meet. My two host parents are really nice and lovely people and I can't wait to finally meet them in person.

Of course, I also immediately googled my school and I'm looking forward to my first day at school here as well!

After I made the first contact with my H-Familie, it took a load of my mind and it is generally a very nice feeling to finally have accurate information about my year abroad.

Also, yesterday my dad booked my flight and I will be leaving on Wednesday.

As you can see I'm already totally excited and looking forward to my trip finally starting.

Of course, such a plan is also associated with mixed feelings and the more concrete and closer the departure day approaches, the more I think about the fact that I will not see my parents and friends for a long time.

Despite everything, the anticipation and my positive feelings prevail here and I will continue to report about my experiences here on my blog! :)

Have a great day and a nice weekend! See you next time!

Bye Julia
