So, as I mentioned in my previous post, I'll be living with a host family for the first three weeks of my stay in Costa Rica. It's actually a pretty sweet deal. I get a key to the house so I can come and go as I please, I'm provided with two meals a day, and my new mother does my laundry at least once a week, with the exception of my dirty undies (which I suspect shall be fairly steamy.)
When I signed up for the language program, I was asked to list certain preferences regarding my homestay. I had only one request, that I be placed in a family with children. Why? Well, I did it for two reasons: 1) I figured it would add to the whole cultural experience; and 2) I love little boys (there, I beat all you perverts to the punch.)
I just received some information on my new family, and it looks like Amerispan came through. Here's the rundown, including year of birth, for each member:
Denise Melendez Gonzalez (1979); Kristian Sanchez Solano (1974); Sebastian (1998); Sofia (2004); Mariana (2004).
So, I'm pretty pumped. I'll have a twelve year old brother, two six year old sisters, and my new thirty-six year old father and I should get along fairly well. The only one I'm worried about is my new mother, Ms. Gonzalez. Thirty-one years old? Yikes. That's well within my age of prey.

I guess they had a "no dirty undies" clause written into the host-family housing agreement?
ReplyDeleteActually, in the housing agreement I believe they were referred to as "the whites."
ReplyDeletehmm..things should get interesting if Ms. Gonzalez turns out to be a hottie...
ReplyDeleteMy post never made it up yesterday. This new sibling situation doesn't seem much different than your current one. I'm as annoying as a 12 year old and jared as 2 six year olds...
