Letter: Exchange exceeds expectation

The Columbian

Published: November 11, 2014, 12:00am

I am an exchange student from Germany and I am staying in Vancouver for 10 months with the Aspect Foundation program. I am so grateful to be a member of this community so far. It is not easy to be an exchange student, but here in this country and especially in this area, the people are so nice and helpful. The nature and the city are beautiful and it is just an awesome experience to be an exchange student here.

I want to thank every person living around here who makes this place so beautiful and shares their culture with me and every other exchange student.
