Good first day for the French students in America. They were able to see and enjoy eating the huge American Pizza, explore Manheim, go bowling and take a walk in the park.

33 FRENCH students coming to Lancaster County PA. I am currently seeking host families to host these students. It is a very short program, the students would only be with you for 8 nights. They will be with us from April 11-19. The students spend their time with me during the day and with your family in the evening and on the weekend. This is an experience your family would never forget and you will make a lifelong friend from France. Please contact me for more info if you are interested.

It is with such a heavy heart that we help our 20 French visiting students understand and deal with the tragedy that has occurred in their home country this evening. Please know France that you are in my thoughts and prayers as you grieve this senseless act of violence.

We welcomed 20 French students to Lancaster and Lebanon County. We enjoyed our first day of class together and getting to know each other bowling. I am looking forward to spending more time with the students and having lots of fun as we grow together.

I have 20 French Students coming in July. They will be here from July 7-26, only 19 nights. This summer program is a lot slower paced then the 10 day programs, it gives families time to relax and really get to know their student. I am looking for host families for these students, they range in age from 14 - 17 years old. There is also opportunities for your family to travel with us to Washington DC and NYC. Please contact me for any questions you might have.

Second day in New York City a success with the French students. With sadness I said goodbye today as I watch them go through security at the airport. It never gets easier as groups leave.

We had a great first day in New York City. It was cold and windy but beautiful blue sky. We are settled in the hotel and the students are looking forward to Pizza party for dinner.
