I'm Stefanie, and I will be on a Rotary Youth Exchange in Argentina from 25th of August 2011 to July 2012. I created this blog so that friends and family can know what I'm doing, as well as to give some important advice to future exchangees. My mother tongue is German, although I'll try to keep my blog in English, and some articles either in German, French or (one day) Spanish.

My very first post
This is my very first post on my new blog. Excuse me some mistakes, I have never ever written a blog before today. I'm an absolute beginner in this matter.
Actually, I don't know where to start, but maybe I should write about my aims concerning this blog.
To begin with, my blog has three target groups: first of all my friends and family, secondly future exchange students, and last but not least all other people interested in an exchange student's life.
My mother tongue is German, but I'll try to keep the blog mainly in English (so, please excuse some spelling or grammar mistakes), so that everyone has the possibility to read it. It could happen that I write in French or German sometimes - or, maybe in some weeks or months, in Spanish - but this should not prevent you from reading my blog. Just copy and past it into the famous Google translator.
So, I've just published my first post and I must say ... it's not that bad actually.
However, I still have to change something, if only I knew what...
Today is the 29th of July 2011, I'll go to Argentina yesterday in 4 weeks. At the moment, I am studying more or less hard for my driving licence, this is why I cannot be absorbed by exchange year preparation. I do not know if that is good or not, but if I pass my driving licence without any problems on the 11th of August, I still have two weeks to pack and to buy the last important things. And if I fail on the practical driving exam, I have a problem, because in Austria, you have to wait at least two weeks before you can take the exam again ... so, I could take it the day I leave for Argentina, which would be kind of impossible.
Well, I do not want to bore you with driving licence stuff, I will publish a new post once I have something interesting to say.
Hasta pronto, amigos!
