Hello! My name is Emily Westlake. I am 15 years old and a sophomore at P.K. Yonge School. I will be spending my junior year in Italy!! I was so surprised when I found out that I will be going to Italy next year. I have always wanted to go there, and now my dream is finally coming true! Italy is such a beautiful place and I couldn’t be happier. One of my goals during this exchange is to become fluent in Italian and completely immerse myself in the culture.
I live in a house with my mom, dad, brother, and two greyhound dogs. When I have free time, I enjoy hanging out with my family and friends. I also like playing with my dogs and taking them for walks. I am on the varsity cross country and track team at my school and I love to run. Other things I enjoy doing are shopping, eating, and going to school. My favorite class in school is Spanish. I like Spanish because it is cool to be able to speak and understand another language.
Words cannot say how thankful I am for the Rotary Youth Exchange program. Thank you for making my dreams come true. |
