28 AFSers placed and 8 more to go for the fall

by Kathy Whitlock

Jul 25, 2009

These are two wonderful AFSers who still needs loving host families for the fall. They would be great matches for families who golf, have small children and/or would love a student who plays the guitar. David is a full Congress- Bundestag scholaship student. They are all academically talented and speak very good English as well as are medically fully insured throughout their AFS year.

Contact Jackie Smiley if you are interested at jackie.[email removed].

Emelie from Sweden

Emelie is open-minded and sociable. She enjoys playing golf a lot and dancing, and participates in a school theater class. Emelie likes spending time with her family, and often plays golf together with her parents, her brother and her grandparents. Emelie loves little children and dogs, and enjoys taking care of her family's cocker spaniel. She is not sure yet about her plans for the future, but she can imagine becoming an architect or working with children.
