A Wonderful Reunion in Norway...

Marie-Eve Boyer (Quebec), Tanya Hall (Canada), Bodil Opshaug (Norway), Elina (Finland) and Ariana Pradal (Italy)

Dear Kiwi friends and family!

I just wanted to share with you how wonderful it was a few weekends ago to meet again with some Rotary Exchange Students I met in NZ in 1992 - 93! It was exceptional. We had the chance to visit Bodil in Norway, we were 5 of us (Ariana, from Switzerland, Elina from Finland, Tanya from Canada, Bodil from Norway and myself). You surely saw some pictures on Facebook... Not from me, because I am a bit lazy with social media, I sneak on your lives, but do not post much of my life...

Rotary Continues Pacific Expansion

Kiribati is one of, if not THE, poorest nation in the Pacific with communities in desperate need of a helping hand. District 9920 has recently initiated two major undertakings that will help these communities substantially. Here District 9920 Governor Ingrid is shown a community garden during her April visit.

A life in Argentina ...

Hello again from Argentina! I am here to say once again, that time really does fly, because the fact that I am already one third of a way through my exchange is absolutely - loco - !

My month began with my counsellor, which is so fitting as he has become such a nice and comforting person in my exchange. 1 de Mayo is ‘workers day’ and a public holiday for Argentina. The argentinian’s eat ‘locro’ on this day, which is a traditional dish in Argentina that is almost a combination of a stew, a curry and a soup and is one of my all time favourites! I went to my counsellor’s house and spent time with his family and I felt so welcomed, and it was nice to be treated like a ‘granddaughter’.
