I know we are living in uncertain times right now, but more than ever I believe we can still open our hearts and homes to young people hoping to experience a year abroad here in Montana. <span>We are living in strange times with much that is unknown, but our
individual actions and ability to connect and make room in our hearts
and homes for one more is a terrific act of love. </span></div></div><div data-setdir="false" dir="ltr"><br><div data-setdir="false" dir="ltr">Greenheart students come with their own spending money and health insurance; host families are expected to provide 3 meals a day, a bed/room of their own (they can share a bedroom with a host sibling of same-sex), transportation to and from school, and most importantly an open and loving home to treat them as one of their own and share their lives for a 10 month home stay. Greenheart Exchange is open and inclusive in its host families. <div data-setdir="false" dir="ltr"><br><div data-setdir="false" dir="ltr">Montana and Kumamoto are sister-states, as part of a special agreement, each year one or two Kumamoto students come for a year of exchange in Missoula. This year we have a 17 year old girl who will be entering as a senior in high school. <span>She is a dedicated student, an excellent swimmer and badminton player, who's passionate about
airplane travel and watching planes. She dreams of becoming an air
traffic controller or possibly a flight attendant. She comes from an active family of 4 with an 14 year old sister. She has studied Montana a bit and would love to be able to visit Glacier or Yellowstone. <span><span>This will be here first time traveling abroad and
she is so excited to share her Japanese culture and improve her English.<br></span></span></span><span><span><span></span></span></span><div data-setdir="false" dir="ltr"><br><div data-setdir="false" dir="ltr"><div>Please contact me, Sarah Smith, if you are interested... or even curious to hear more information. <br><div data-setdir="false" dir="ltr">406.270.1811<br><div>smaigin@yahoo.com</div></div></div><div><br></div><div><a target="_blank" rel="nofollow" class="ydp32be9107enhancr_card_2198776130" href="https://greenheartexchange.org/host/host-an-exchange-student/">Host an Exchange Student | Host | Greenheart Exchange</a></div><div><br></div><div id="ydpd35b6694enhancr_card_2198776130" class="ydpd35b6694yahoo-link-enhancr-card ydpd35b6694ymail-preserve-class ydpd35b6694ymail-preserve-style" style="max-width:400px;font-family:YahooSans, Helvetica Neue, Segoe UI, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif" data-url="https://greenheartexchange.org/host/host-an-exchange-student/" data-type="YENHANCER" data-size="MEDIUM" contenteditable="false"><a target="_blank" rel="nofollow" href="https://greenheartexchange.org/host/host-an-exchange-student/" style="text-decoration-line: none !
