Dear Laura,

Hello, Laura! Long time no see. How are you doing?

Thank you for teaching me a lot of things. Every class of yours was so fun!

The thing I remember most in your classes is your words,“You can do it.” These words really make me strong anytime.

Also, I was glad to spend the time in your car and your wonderful house. I enjoyed talking about a lot of things with you.

Now, I'm always having some things you made me or gave me. They make my feel positive! You are supporting me from America, even now.

I don't think that I was able to continue and finish my American life without you. I will never forget the memories I had with you in America. In addition, I will live with your words “You can do it,” from now on.

I really appreciate your support. I'm really glad that I met you!

I hope to see you again!

From Rina

Dear the Fant Family,

Hello, Mike, Lin, Morgan, and Logan! Long time no see. How are you doing?

Thank you for accepting me to your home. I really spent a great time with you in America!

I was surprised that all American food was delicious! I hope to eat American food with you again.

Mike and Lin, thank you for taking me to various places. I was glad to go to many places, especially, the Museum of Flight. The simulation type attractions were very fun! Not only that, I enjoyed the American casual daily life I spent with you. Especially, listening to Mike's jokes, and making things with Lin.

Morgan and Logan, thank you for spending the time with me every day. I was able to have fun doing a lot of things with you. For example, having strange candies, playing games and puzzles, singing together, and waching movies. I especially enjoyed playing with moving chicken toys. My chicken, Corn Champion, is displayed in my room now.

At first, I was full of anxiety about staying in America, but thanks to you all, I enjoyed living in America to the end. The three weeks I spent with you were so exciting, fresh, and fast. Even now, I sometimes think of those days and I want to go back to those days.

Finally, I really appreciate your hospitality. I'm really glad that I met you all!

I'm looking forward to seeing you again!

From Rina
