Day 23 ~ India

We are hosting a student from India for a week. We picked him up today and took him to an Italian restaurant. Despite coming from a very different culture, he shares a few things with my son: same age, being an only child, and having science as his favorite subject. He's part of the first student delegation exchange to tie bonds between our local city and its sister city in India. He's supposed to learn about American culture, but I warned him that we are surrounded by a large population of his fellow countrymen: a third of the people in this area. My son should be going there in February. I would like to go too.
