Foxdale trip!

Today’s trip is the second trip that I have been involved in this semester. Last week I visited Radio park elementary school with my oral communication classmates. I was so excited to meet kindergarten students and spend a day with them. In contrast, I was not excited to visit Foxdale as much as I was excited to visit the school. Before we went to Foxdale trip, I had some concerns like asking them questions that they don’t feel comfortable to talk about, or how I can start the conversation. Therefore, I was a little bit nervous when we arrived.

After we went there, everything changed and my fears disappeared. I really spent a good time with beautiful Dutch couples who were glad to meet and talk with me and Roqayah. We talked about different topics such as Holland where they come from, Saudi Arabia, their hobbies, politics, majors, why they came to Foxdale care and many many things. Also, they showed us the dinning hall and the art room since we were talking about drawing.
The time went to fast, so the challenge thing was how we can arrange our time to discuss different topics. At the end of our meeting they encouraged as to work hard in order to achieve our goals and to complete our academic studies.

My advice to future IECP students is they should be comfortable and don’t hesitate to ask any question because they are glad to answer.

 At the end, I can say that I enjoyed my time at Foxdale more than at school. Also, I will never forget this amazing experience, and I will never forget those kind couples!
