CLINTON 482-9414 Brazilian enjoys Canada Rodrigo Gasbaretto, a 17 -year old Brazillian native returned to his Sao Paula, Cambinas home last week, with praise about Canada and his host's. Rodrigo took part in an Experiment in lnternation.- Living -.program and made his home in Clinton with the Beecher Menzies family for six weeks. He enjoyed his first visit to Canada, including our North American winter and even tried downhill skiing. He also took part in classes at Central Huron Secondary School and found that schools here have more organization and order. Despite language differences, the barriers between Portugese and English were few and Rodrigo returned to Brazil with a new language. English is a prominent language in the South American business world and Rodrigo. ,plansto continue his English.. language studies. While Brazillian schools teach English twice a week, Rodrigo. hopeq, to enrol in extra classes outside the school, He believes that English will help in his future career choice.. He is presently considering following in his father's footsteps, as a doctor, or may decide on a future in engineering. ' Rodrigo's stay in Clinton included a whirlwind tour of several major centres. While in Ottawa he visited the Parliament Buildings and was a guest of the Brazillian ambassador. He toured Toronto, Niagara Falls and skiied in Buffalo and Collingwood. While enjoying his stay in Canada, at the end of six weeks, Rodrigo was anxious to return home. He wasn't necessarily — homesick but realized he was missing school. The Brazillian school term began in March, so Rodrigo was behind. However his mother, a school principal will help him catch up. Rodrigo chose Canada on the exchange program because he said his mother had travelled extensively and she liked Canada better than the United States. He also wanted to learn the language. The. Menzies have been involved in Experiment in International Living in the past, Three years ago- they sponsored an. gentine guest: This time they chose ,rjgo because he was close in age to their son.Beec"`11er. Rodrigo admitted that he found Clinton, "a little different," from his home in Brazil, a city of one million people, still he enjoyed the experience `of living in a different country, speaking a different language and meeting new people.
