Every two years, Kennedy Catholic High School embarks on a foreign exchange through a partnership with a sister school in Germany. 2012, 10 students from Kennedy will be blessed with an opportunity to live, learn, and experience the lifestyle of a traditional Bavarian German. We hope you will enjoy their stories and experiences....

Farewell Party
Today is my last day on the GAPP exchange. We picked flowers as a gift for
our host families to present to them later. After school had ended, I went back
to my host families house where I typed my final essay which summed up my
experience in Germany and began packing because I am leaving with my family
tonight! After all of the fun, I played some last minute video games with Andy
until we went to my other host families house for coffee and cake with my
parents!
It was really nice to see my family after being gone for about three
and a half weeks. At the Nett house, we an assortment of homemade cakes which
were very delicious and my parents shared stories with my host parents about
their experiences. After this nice time we headed to the farewell party where
we met up with all the other families to say goodbye. It was filled with merry
conversation and joyous laughing.
It was a bittersweet goodbye leaving the people who I had been surrounded by for the past while, but filled with excitement for the trip to come shared with my family. I truly had a wonderful time.
