I personally want to thank the many, many people who have made this exchange program possible.We have been blessed with administrative support, contact from German colleagues, secretaries, bus drivers, teachers who missed kids from class or made the German students welcome in classes at UHS, my family, community members who showed off our towns, and the Goethe Institut, US Foreign Ministry and the German Foreign Ministry. We were able to transition from just a tour of Germany, Austria, Liechtenstein and Switzerland to fulfilling, life-changing, life-long relationships with German friends and families.
I can't thank the host families enough, who opened their homes and hearts to these special students. Over the span of 25 years, there have truly been only a few problems. That is amazing!
Vielen Dank von meinem Herzen!
