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.
