Im having the time of my life here! Everybody is so friendly, especially the Walker kids. I do not regret being here at all and hope it doesnt go so fast. The song that reminds me of this trip is "party in the usa" because we've listened to it so many times since we are here. SOFI

One Love Rafaela/Atlanta

Bob Marley, "One Love"

I chose this photo of La Plaza Students meeting with our Global Awareness Club because this informal meeting represents to me the beauty and courage of cultural and language exchanges.

Bob Marley's video and song "One Love" represents my personal perspective and outlook on life while also giving me a great deal of pride as a born Jamaican. After 3 years of participating in this exchange I truly feel that this could be our anthem. Much love to all!

ARRIVAL

YOU KNOW I'M GONNA BE OK,

YEAH IT'S A PARTY IN THE U.S.A.

My experience in Atlanta has been great. I am having so much fun! People are very nice and the school is just amazing. I love having this opportunity to meet new people and live in a different culture.
The song that reminds me of this trip is "Quiero ver amanecer" by Fabulosos Cadillacs. The reason is because it is in one of the resentations and listening to it every day will always remind me of the good times at Walker.

Take a moment to reflect on your experience here in Atlanta thus far. You may want to go through the pictures that you have brought with you to help spark some of your memory.

What thoughts or special memories come to your mind? Are these thoughts of activities or events? Are they smells or interesting things that you have seen? Are they people that you have met or places that you have been?

Create your own post a response to this one. In your post please upload 1 or 2 pictures or videos that represent your experience thus far.

Now, think of a song to accompany your videos or pictures. This song should also be a reflection of your experience.

In your post you should include the name of your song, a link to either the YouTube video or webpage for that artist or group and provide a brief explanation (ENGLISH :)of why you chose those particular pictures/videos and song.


Enjoy the adventure :)
