    I definitely didn’t bring enough clothes (I filled up the whole 23kg) and the only things I haven’t worn yet were summer dresses and shorts cuz it’s cold. Now I’m crazy looking for cheap and good clothes and it’s so hard.
    For me the worst parts so far have been waiting to my flights in the airport, I was completely alone, no exchange students were w me. I got super bored and started regretting it. My tip is just keep busy at all times so ur not gonna be homesick.
    And YOU HAVE TO TALK FIRST otherwise no one that isn’t an exchange student will talk to you.

    And I’m also scared because there’s grades difference between USA and Saudi Arabia that means when I’m going to USA they will be in the 11th grade but I will be in 10th grade that means I’m going to be younger than my classmates

      I’ve always known that I wanted to go to the US but honestly, you should just trust your gut feeling on where to go. Maybe try to make a pro and contra list about every country.. I’m positive that you’ll have a great year, even if something doesn’t work out like you want it to, you’ll definitely learn and grow so much from it.

      @Kayla-ok2rz Год назад

      I'm applying to rotary this year as well, and Im mostly nervous for how competitive it is😅 I wish you all luck! If it eases your mind at all, most districts will let you pick you top three/five countries and ask you if there are any that you just don't want to go to. Also if you want to know what countries your district exchanges with in advanced, you should TOTALLY email your district chairman. That's what I did, and he was sooo helpful👍
