Letter from Pearl


Hi everyone! 

In April I got to go to Greece with Rotary for ten days during the spring break. It was 10 out of our 12 inbounds here and it was the perfect sized group for a trip like that. I got to learn a lot of history (which I loved) and did a lot of sightseeing, but also tried a lot of new foods and drinks in the Greek cafes and hung out on the beaches of course. It was the perfect balance. It was really nice to be in the mountains again too. I also went to Amsterdam with my host family. It was just a day trip but it really left an impression. I thought it was such a beautiful and vibrant city. I also loved getting to see the famous Dutch tulip fields in bloom. Both were really memorable, beautiful experiences with great people. I also visited a really cool forest and the place where the Battle of Waterloo took place before I left for my big Greece trip. Since then, I've also seen some really cute villages and castles with my new host family and I went to the 72nd European Youth's Music Choir Festival/Competition. I went to the Brussels parliament and met the 'president' (-president isn't really a great translation of 'voorzitter' but there's not a better one I can think of- head or chair maybe) of the Parliament and some really well known Belgian politicians. And I've had a couple different city trips in Belgium with school which has been fun. It's been a full month and a fun one!
