Jane Lebowitz -- Estonia (Home Club: Turning Point)

December 4, 2017
 
Sponsor Club: Turning Point 7190
Host Club: Tartu Estonia 1420
Current Host Family: Andres and Piret Metspalu

Health: No problems

Family: I just recently changed host family this weekend, I have 3 host brothers who don't live at home anymore, and a host cat named Avery. I miss my old host family a lot, they're awesome.

School: Yes, I am attending school. The situation is the same, after Christmas break we start art class, which will hopefully feel more engaging. 

Rotary: I still attend the lunchtime meetings once or twice a month, whenever my host father can manage to take me along with him. My allowance is still 100 Euros, and I still see my councilor on a regular basis. 

Activities: I'm still attending my weekly lectures about astrophysics, which has been fun. It is snowing on a regular basis now, so the scenery is very beautiful, especially walking to school in the morning. My host brother goes to school in Tallinn, the capital of Estonia, so I recently took a trip with my new host mother to see him play cello at a concert.
