My parents are possibly hosting an inbound student through the local Rotary district, and I just received an email from Don Fox, one of the people in charge of Rotary Youth Exchange in my area:

Good Morning Sarah,

The applications for the inbounds are starting to arrive and we have the opportunity to select from among them. In other words, although we assumed that we would be hosting a student from Germany, that is not necessarily the case. Your parents (and the other host families) could review a number of applications
and select the student who perhaps shares a hobby, etc. most interests them in some way - perhaps shares a
hobby, etc.

On the other hand if they have their hearts set on a German girl I can see if one is available.

Please let me know as soon as possible.

Thanks,
Don

I forwarded the e-mail to my parents - I think they’re pretty open, though they might want to host a boy more - Don probably got mixed up when he wrote ‘German girl.’ Through Rotary, my parents would only host for one semester, and another family would take care of the other one. I’m excited to look at applications, even though I won’t be around to welcome them, sadly. Sounds super fun!
