I also agreed on a placement yesterday. I am really happy with the family that I am going to live with next year! They live in New York and have three girls aged 12, 8 and 4. Six families contacted me in all which I was really pleased with but it made for some difficult decision making!
I am now really excited to start my year in America!

I am now:

Miss Joanna Macdonald MA (Historical Studies) with Merit!

Ok, some pics from Austria...... This is the view from Sophie's garden!
