Name: Choong Wei Ni

Age: 23

Studying: Marketing

From: Malaysia

She arrived a day after us. A very independent girl. Literally our nanny, cooks and cleans and even leads us around during our tours in US by asking directions from people around. However, has one major problem; her mouth never stops talking...argh~

Name: Piotr Dubec (Peter)

Age:25
Studying: Tourism

From: Poland

He and his fiance arrived 3 weeks after us. Considered my best friend during this entire program. He's very funky and friendly. And he's really BIG. Looking at his head alone, you might not have any idea of how big he is. How big?

Hopefully, this picture helps in helping you guys to get the idea.

Name: Kasia Kojiych (Kate)
Age: 25
Studying: Education
From: Poland

Peter's fiance. Apart from me and Wei Ni, she's one of those who does house chores. In fact, she's the best when it comes to cleaning.

(p/s : Polish is really hard to learn).

Name: Denitsa Eva Nova Genova (Danny)

Age: 21

Studying: Mass Communication

From : Bulgaria

She and her coursemate arrive severals after Peter and Kate. Her first impression for me is a sexy and cool lady. However, as we get to know each other, I find that she's quite friendly. A very aggresive shopper and loves party.

Name: Eva Dimitrova
Age: 21
Studying: Mass Communication

From: Bulgaria

A coursemate of Danny. Shares a quite similar personality with Danny but has a short temper because she's the only child in her family. However, she's friendly and nice most of the time.

The funniest thing about Bulgarians is that they shake their heads when they agree to somthing, or when they want to say yes. It is difficult for us to understand them at first. But after awhile, we get to adapt to each other's culture.

(p/s: Bulgarian is even harder than Polish)

Name: Fernando Maldonado

Age: 22

Studying: Chemical Engneering

From: Ecuador

"Fernando is mi amigo" (Fernando is my friend), that's one phrase I learnt from this guy. He speaks a little but tries his best to mix with the rest of our housemates.

Name: Marta Hermaniuk

Age: 23

Studying: English

From: Poland

Yeah~Pretty. Too bad she arived just one week before our departure. However, I still get to know her in such limited time. She's very confident in herself. Enjoys cycling and is a vegetarian.

Name: Sheila

Age: Unknown

She is not our housemate but our landlady, who has been very nice to us. She never press us on the rent and let us pay whenever we feel like. Along with her husband, they will get us anything we need that's lacking in the house.

We'll always hang around at the living room after work.

Occasionally, our manager would even drop by and join us.For us the chinese, we do miss chinese food. So we did some cooking for ourselves at home sometimes. Here's us with rice and chinese style chicken soup~Going online is one of the things I enjoy doing most during my leisure times.
