Email from my host mom

Yesterday I got my first email from my host mom, Karin. She sounds really nice. I also got some pictures of my host family. In a couple of the pictures there is so much snow! So I asked my host mom if it normally snows that much. We'll see what she says. Also, Karin said they live about 5 minutes from Belgium by car and that they go there to buy coffee and go to the vet! I guess coffee is much cheaper there. I also got a couple of letters yesterday from ASSE. One was an official acceptance letter for the program along with a profile of my host family and some papers I need to get signed for my Visa. The other was a generic letter about host families. Both were very exciting to read and I hope I get a couple more letters soon!
