A dream of family
Clark and Mimi is a couple from the United
States. Clark is a retired broker and Mimi is an ESL teacher. They have 1 dog called
Ales which we became very good friends. I was their host during a day, but during
that short period I spent a fantastic time. All what happened in that day was
very particular since the way I met her until the day she left me in The University
Towers.
Yet, what makes them a fantastic couple?
Firstly, Mimi
and Clark have had a lot of exchange students in their house. When ESL organizes
a homestay they are one of the people that offer their house for the homestay.
I met Mimi
in a very particular way. I was in an event from ESL, and she asked me where I was
from. I told her that I am a Fulbrighter student, and then she asked me my
name, and when I said my name is David” she said me that I was her host. Such a
Crazy History…
After that, we went to her house by car and
when we were speaking in the car, we had a very interesting talk in which I
talked to her my bad Ideology which said that all the United States citizenship
are like Donald Trump. She told me that, there is a lot of people that thinks
that, because the politic of the United States where very aggressive to other
countries, but figuering out I could understand more about the economic and
policy of the United States. Furthermore, In that Talk I learned that In the
United States there are a lot of things happening at the same time, rather than
Argentina That is a very centraliced country.
After that
interesting talk we arrived to her house and I met Clark, her husband, and we
pick him up to go to another place. They carry on me to a Chinese restaurant and
it was my first time tasting wasabi (It was very very spicy), but despite of
the fact that it was spicy, it was very good.
Later we
went to a cowboy store to hear some music, to finish again in their house drinking
some Germany beer and talking about their life, trips that they made, their
experiences, Jokes, And know more about the United States Country.
The
following day we went to make walk their dog and it was very funny, because
apart from walking their dog they made me a city tour of Austin. I learnt a lot
from the Music, and popular places in Austin a part from practicing my English.
So, I hope that this program continues in the future because it is a good way
to understand more in the world that we live, and the different points of view
that all the persons have.
So, the
unique word that I have from them Is thanks for that fantastic day, and the
experiences that I had with all of them.
