My First Host Family

Hi Everyone,

So this post should have come a long time ago... Like about 2 months. But better late than never. First off, I will be for sure going to Santiago, Chile. My first host dad's name is Carlos Gongora (with an accent over the first o). He is a doctor. He was once a general practitioner so at least I won't have to worry if I get sick :).  My host mom's name is Maria (accent on i) Isabel Jercic. She works studing diseases. They have two sons. Pablo, is 17, will be a Rotary foreign exchange student to Nevada while I am over there so there is no promise we will get to meet. Their second son, Gabriel, is 11. He is the one that I will meet and get to hang out with for sure. He loves to do magic tricks and seems very fun. They all love music and seem very happy and loving. I feel that it is going to be a perfect fit. I will attached a picture of all of them together. I can't wait to get to meet them in person.

We just recently recieved my guarantee form. This will allow us to finish filling out my visa application, which is uber important. :) So please keep praying for us as the time draws near to leave and as we finish the final touches out so that I may leave.
