Match day

Ciao!

Just a quick note today because it's getting late. All of the kids arrived today. They were paired off with Italian families, with whom they will live for the next nine months! I never could have done this as a teenager so I'm in awe of them. The school had a very cute ceremony this afternoon for the student/family match up. All of the students seem great! We're really excited for this year to get underway.

PS. Italian can be a tricky language. We just found out that one slip of the tongue can make all the difference:

"Eli ha uno anno." = Eli is one year old.
"Eli ha uno ano." = Eli has one asshole.

Don't worry, we've got it down now...
