I started school last week, but I already had a
lot of good experience with my class friends. We
went to the beach, to Horton Plaza for shopping
and walking around the Gaslamp quarter and
downtown!

I highly recommend that students go out and meet
American people in the shopping centers, on the
beach, in Balboa park Americans are very open
people and they will be happy to be your friends!

Frankly speaking, the location of the school is
