Julie Pollock - Team Member: My “to do” list keeps getting shorter as the day progresses and our departure for Australia gets closer. I sent an email to my host families yesterday and have received very welcoming replies! I can’t say how great it feels to be part of this Global Study Exchange and to soon meet all of our wonderful hosts and Rotarians in and around Melbourne! I’ve attached a photo of my dog, Libbie, and although she is in very loving care while I’m away, I can’t help but miss her a little already. Luckily, a few of my host families own pets so I won’t be completely without furry friends! I am so grateful for this opportunity and to use an Australian term I learned from one of my hosts via email, I am “chuffed” to be participating in this amazing journey with the rest of my GSE team from District 6000!
