Rakeb is here! After 30+ hours of travel she arrived in
Denver on Monday, August 12th. She’s had a whirlwind first week with registering for classes, seeing Ben Harper in concert, meeting tons of people,
and adjusting to American culture among many other things.
One of the highlights has been a trip she took to Colorado
Springs this past weekend. She and the other seven Amicus exchange students
living in Colorado got together for an orientation weekend. Orientation is
often equated with boredom, but that wasn’t the case this time. It was held at
a castle in the mountains! She got to experience hiking, make many new
friends, and see a new part of beautiful Colorado.
We are trying to make sure she enjoys the last bit of summer
before starting school on August 26th, so this week we will see Fun
in concert, go to a BBQ contest, and do some more shopping!
Thanks again to everyone for making this possible! More updates to come soon!!!
On our way to see Ben Harper
