Intro Camp!

This last Friday, Saturday, and Sunday was my Intro Camp with all the other Inbounds! Here are some pictures: 
On the bus
Checking in at the hotel
Soccer field! We played soccer and American football all together with the Rebounds. So fun!
This is the view from the hotel's soccer field
Nighttime view
Here are some pictures of the food (we had four courses for every meal. So much food!) 
The food here was so good. I love Turkish food :) 
Here are some more Inbounds: Luis from Germany, Julia from California, and Hana from Nebraska
 A panorama from when all the Inbounds came to hangout in our (Julia-California, Hailey-Wyoming, and I's) room.

Also, Sunday (today) our host families came to the hotel for lunch and to pick us up. But while they were there, all the Imbounds put on a talent show for them! We danced to songs that we thought represented each country. For Mexico we danced the Conga line to "La Cucaracha", for Brasil we danced an easy partner dance to a traditional song, for Argentina, we danced to a popular Spanish song, for France we all did the "Cancan", for USA we did the "YMCA", and for Germany we danced "The Chicken Dance". All the families and Rotarians loved it! Haha but it was quite embarrassing for us. Oh well, what's youth exchange without going out of your comfort zone?

Such a fun weekend! Can't wait to see you all again soon :)

  1. Looks like you are making lots of friends. I can't wait to try some of your new dishes when you return. I am sure they will be just as good as your cake.
