So, a couple of days ago, I received my host family Information. I will be living in Tagbilaran City on the island of Bohol in the central Visayas region. This is one of the most beautiful islands, by the way. My city is the capitol of the island, and is located in the Southwestern part of the island. I am super excited to make "The City of Friendship" my home!
And my family! I have been in contact with my loving host mother, and a bit with my super sweet host sister, and they are both so nice! I will have one host sister and my host parents. They are a Catholic family, so I will be able to experience first hand the Catholic traditions of the Philippines. I will be attending the same Catholic school as my host sister. I am super excited to meet them and spend 10 months with my second family!
