The crazy Australian I am true and blue, yet the courageous Belgian is beating in my heart too.' Jenni from Brisbane embraced Belgian life 'to the full' as told in a recent email to WEP: 'Everything is going just absolutely fantastically superb over here. I'm living life in beautiful Belgium with some of the most amazing people in the whole world. My family is just fantastic and I love them all as if they were my own. I'm known as the crazy middle child and they are all my beautiful Belgians. At the moment my host mum and I are actually painting and arranging the living room.

School is just fantastic and I have so many wonderful friends that I can't count them. A lot of my friends are constantly saying to me, " But how do you know them?" or, "Who was that person you were just speaking to, I've never even seen them before." Being an exchange student does mean that you are more open to everyone I guess and I have so many friends in every grade.

The teachers are just amazing as well, and now I am able to do almost everything within the classes... well almost everything, I had to tell my teacher the other day that I didn't think that I would be able to complete the book analysis that we had due, because I had spent the first half of the book thinking that it was a girl, who was speaking, when actually it was really a guy!

Every week I do a special presentation in front of my class, about the events of the week and a few weeks ago I did a talk on Australia for my English class and because the class found it so interesting I was asked to do it two more times for other grade levels.

Life is just great, fantastically great, that it's hard to think that I will actually be leaving in a few months time. My friends are already telling me that I should just miss the aeroplane, or lose my passport so that I would have to stay here. When saying that I've got to start university next year they all say, "But you can go to university here." It's going to be very hard to leave thats for sure.

The days are just flying by and I can't believe just how lucky I am to experience this amazing adventure of exchange. The friends and family that I have made will be in my life forever and I will always remember all of the beautiful moments that we spent together. Belgium has become the second home in my heart and I will forever be proud of this little country of mine. The crazy Australian I am true and blue, yet the courageous Belgian is beating in my heart too.'
