“I am writing to tell you I have safely arrived in Hangzhou and to express my thanks for your hospitality in the past fours weeks.

    Everything was just about perfect. You certainly know how to make a exchange student feel at home. Tiffany's delicious meals were a treat, and your flexibility in adapting to my irregular schedules made many things possible. What's more, I will never forget your recommendations on our trip to Las Vegas!

    I hope you and your family know how I appreciate your hospitality, and your many kindnesses to me. I added some photos to this letter and I hope you can enjoy.

    With many thanksand I want to visit you again!”  Kerjan Chen, China, 2012

“My host family spoke English to me all of the time! It is total immersion. My thoughts were in English, there is no better way to learn the language. Through total immersion I have gained a new family I cannot even explain how happy I am for that.”

“I am going to ride by Giant bicycles to Tibet, a place which is very far from Hangzhou.  It is the last holy land in the world.  I will send you my holy prayers to you and your family and now my family in America. When I am there, I will bring back a Buddha statue and give to you.  I promise!  As you know, my university visit UC Davis every year.”
