family doesn't always have the same blood




they're my hostparents when i was staying at united states. the first picture is becky and chuck elston, with widya, bunga and i. becky and chuck are my hostparents in hendersonville. they have a cute beagle named ellie. the second picture is wanda and le roy rogers, with inas and i. they're my hostparents in knoxville.

i'm amazed how these people embraced us as their own family. they barely knew us, yet let us stayed in their cribs. i think that's really the purpose of citizen exchange. to welcome strangers as your own. and that is really what had happened. we came as strangers, but we left as a family.
