This year鈥檚 亚洲天堂 Lake Rotary Club exchange student, Mikalie Culberson, is in Brazil. In December she visited an orphanage and delivered gifts with former exchange students from Brazil; afterwards she attended a Rotary party, in which she won a talent show. She also went to the beach the week before Christmas. 鈥淭here, I swam in the ocean, got moderately sunburned and ate a lot of french fries,鈥 she reported to Lakes District Secondary School. Her New Years was spent at a cabin two hours from Sao Paulo with her third host family and their current exchange student. In terms of language, she says she is not only able to hold a five-minute conversation, but talk for five minutes straight. But she confesses that she still calls frogs 鈥渟hoes鈥 accidentally.
