Why I can go to Italy for doing exchange?
The question still looms on my mind. I still can’t believe that I’m in Italy. I used to have a dream of going abroad, and it turned out that I am being able to go abroad, not to be a tourist but a student exchange. To be honest, Italy is not my chosen country. Of the 10 choices, there is no Italy in it. And yes, I’m regretting that I didn’t put Italy as my first choice.
My name is Aiko Sarasvaty Prabowo, you can call me Aiko, I come from Indonesia. I am 17 years old. In Italy, I lived in Napoli.
When I am sitting on a plane, I still not believing that I will go to Italy. Especially during orientation in Rome, ‘how can I become an exchange student in Italy? ‘’ That’s what I asked myself at that time. When I in the train to Naples to meet my host family, my heart beat so fast, lots of questions, lots of thoughts in my head while on the train.
