Today I got to know about my host family. Not too much information, but at least I know I'll be having my own room and a dog - so finally I can have a dog... for exactly as much as about a year... that's also something!
I even know my future adress, so I can already start mailing letters to myself [Muhv nõudmiseni].
My father will be 63 years old and retired. My mom will be 53, a social worker. My sister is 23 but she'll leave for Europe in September. Thus, I have another sister till January - Hilde, another exchangee, 18 years old.
Actually, I'm lucky to have even 2 families. Up till September I'll be living with another couple. So it means a lot of presents to be taken from Estonia.

The only place to contemplate the wisdom of humanity is on the throne of laziness.
So, meanwhile I have learnt exactly that much Spanish: 0
(but I DO think about learning every day, honestly!)
And I thought I've prepared myself with a sufficient dose of salsa-dancing... but then again... one-two-thre, five-six-seven - that's about it?
Now I'm gathering my willingness to actually make a plan what I need to do before I go... the only thing I probably could focus on is the party-planning :D
Well okay, I have been a bit good as well... I've been to the pre-departure seminar which was actually quite useful actually. Now I don't think asking for ice-cream is the only thing I need... they convinced me otherwise. And after the seminar I had so many questions to both organisations (sending and recieving) that one of the gentlemen in Costa Rica preferred to quit his job and not answer our questions.
