Jack from HongKong

Jack visited my home on June 21. He was a home stay guest at my home and stayed for 5 weeks to July 27. Although it was the first time for my family to host a guest, we had very valuable experiences with him, especially, my two daughters.
I can say that it was worth doing.

Sometimes, they studied together. And My daughters taught him Korean and gave a Korean dictation as if they were a Korean teacher.

We invited Jack's friend, PM (we call him " 오후 " in Korean name) to my house before him leaving and had a dinner.

This is the picture that was taken in my sofa just before him leaving on July 27.

After he left, we missed a lot him and sent emails. Also, he replyed and made a phone call. He was a vlaued guest.

We will keep in touch each other wherever he go. He is going to teach Chinese and learn Spanish in Colombia for a year, and then apply for his job.

I believe he will be success in his life because he knows how to live and make a friend.

Today, My two daughters learn English to speak to him.
