I have arrived in Paris! The flight to Paris was great although I couldn't sleep at all because of the time change! The first day in Paris we got to the hostel and got our rooms and roommates! I am rooming with Irmak, Alexis, Amanda, and Mikki from Turkey, New York, Norway, and Japan! There are 288 teenagers from all over the world here! I have met so many people and heard a huge variety of languages! Today we went to Paris and it was incredible! It's my 16th birthday today and people have sung happy birthday to me many times in all different languages! Under the Eiffel Tower everyone sang to me and It made me super happy. We made a huge circle near the Eiffel Tower and did something a lot like our circle that we do in our theatre Co. Before a show! It was crazy and super fun. Everyone was staring at us and taking videos. Tomorrow I will meet my host family and I'm so excited! I can't wait to finally be in my new home and go to school! Every single French person I have met so far has been SO nice! So one stereotype proven wrong so far! The volunteers here are all really young and they are super fun and laid-back which is nice! So it's really just 288 teens with 20 young adults.. So I will update when I get to my host family!!
