When I was 16 years old I went to the United
States: I was a student then and that was the first time I left home.
I went to Boston
One of the things I remember quite
clearly was my arrival: to start with, I missed the train from New York to Boston
When
I arrived at the family house, I lost my voice, so nervous I felt. For three
days I did not say a word. Now I know that was an unconscious way to get
familiar with the English they spoke.
Fortunately,
after one week I felt more confident, I started to speak a little and the people
in the house began to understand me.
How nice and enjoyable the second
week was!
The
big morning breakfast, a snack at lunch time and early dinner at 6:00 p.m.
became a routine. The shops were interesting, the vanilla ice-cream was wonderful,
the sports were attractive and in a short time new friends were like the old
ones.
This
experience was unforgettable!
