Dear Laura,

     Thanks for your message. Yes, I'm having  a great time on my exchange program in France. It's even  

better than I thought it would be. I was a bit nervous before I arrived  here, but there was no reason to be.

My host family is really nice. They go out of their way to make me feel at home. And you wouldn't believe

how quickly my French has improved! I'm very comfortable speaking French now. Although I still make

lots of mistakes, it doesn't bother me like it used to. My biggest challenge is learning how to behave at the

dinner table. As you can imagine, things are really different from the way they are at home. For example,

you're not supposed to put your bread on your plate. You're supposed to put it on the table! I thought

that was pretty strange at first, but now I'm used to it. You're not supposed to eat anything with your hands

except bread, not even fruit! (You have to cut it up and eat it with a fork). Another thing is that it is very

rude to say you're full. If you don't want any more food, you should just say, "It was delicious." Also, it's

rude to put your hands in your lap. You should always keep your hands, but not your elbows, on the table.

I have to say, I find it difficult to remember everything, but I'm gradually getting used to things and don't

find them so strange any more. I'll write soon and tell you more about life in France. Hope you're having a

good school year.
