Um ano no Brasil Aisling Peterson
Paracatu, Minas Gerais, Brasil District 4760
Being a Foreigner • Friendly relationship • Political respect, if not always understanding • Peers were open, interested in exchange and American culture • Physical appearance can draw some attention
Difficulties and Learning Experiences • Language barriers • Siblings and new family dynamics • Making friends outside of school • Dealing with US political disagreement • Homesickness • Culture shock
How have I changed? • Higher self-confidence • Bilingual abilities • Wanderlust • A different cultural perspective on American life • Greater self-awareness, future goals • Families and friends on multiple continents Exchange was (so far) the greatest year of my life!
Thank You! Without the unwavering support of my Rotary club, I could not be standing where I am today. I am eternally grateful for all that Rotary has given me in these past three years.
