On Wednesday November 29 we had very entertaining and informative presentation by each of our 2017-2018 Inbound Rotary Exchange Students. First up was Marta Grazidi from Italy. Marta is 17, and hails from Brescia Italy, a city in Northern Italy with a population of about 200,000. Her exchange was facilitated with her local Rotary Group Brescial Castello Rotary. When asked what she has liked most about her visit here so far, she responded the people, and the opportunity to be yourself and not be judged.
     Next was Sujin, who is visiting from South Korea. She is an identical twin, (her twin Kim Su- Min is on exchange as well, and is staying in Florida). Sujin took us through a typical day in her life, which includes a lot of study time. after regular school they attend self-study until around 10 pm. she shared pictures of the typical attire from her country, and talked about her love of for her dog, and share pictures of typical Korean dishes. She provided us with some sample of Almonds, a cookie, and sea weed to try at our tables. I think the almonds where a hit! She enjoys playing the violin, piano, and listening to pop music and dancing. Her favorite foods in the United states are chicken and Snow crab legs.
 
       Both ladies gave lovely presentations, if you haven't gotten a chance to spend some time chatting with them, please do so! They both have lots to share with us. Thank you, Marta, and Sujin for your presentation. We are so glad you are here with us this year!
