erosdiary: My kid signed up for this big study abroad program with her college. Said she wanted to see the world and meet new people. That’s all well and good but she never once thought of the expenses that sort of thing tends to add onto her actual tuition. Fortunately the program offers major discounts if we sign up as a host family for other kids that are visiting our country while our kid is visiting theirs. I wasn’t crazy about the idea of a stranger living here rent free but my little girl had her heart set on it and this lets her live her dream for next to nothing. I reluctantly agreed. Lemme tell you, my attitude has long changed on the plan. See each month my daughter gets to visit a new country and in her place I get a new playmate staying just down the hall. This month we have little Aiko from Japan. She didn’t even wait a full week before making a move and letting me stuff every hole she had. Two more weeks of this foreign college puss and I get to ship her off for my next host daughter. The best part is i’ve got eleven more months ahead of me. I only hope my daughter is having as good a time as i’m having, because i’ve already decided to re-enroll her for the program again next year. -- source link
