“I like to travel a lot. In winter we travel to Italy or Austria to go snowboarding. We have one month of summer holidays. We travel to mostly two different countries, Croatia and Italy. Last year I had a class trip to China. That was pretty cool because I had learned Chinese in school. It was a small change but just for a few weeks. The Chinese students also came and lived with us for a few weeks. It was pretty cool.” Marvin Oppermann, a German exchange student, said.

“In the south I like going to Tennessee because of the Smoky Mountains. I like to go hiking in the national parks, seeing waterfalls, and seeing the historical buildings. Up north, I like New York. I’ve been to New York. I like Times Square, and Central Park, and seeing Broadway shows. They also have deciduous trees. They change colors. They have them in Tennessee too, and when I go up there the trees will be really colorful and really pretty. I’ve been to Dollywood, and  to Nashville. There’s a lot of history there. Down here we have our beaches, and I think we have some of the best beaches. I’ve just been a bunch of places.” Ansley Salmon, a sophomore attending Daphne High, said.
