the activities were done with the family rather than individually .fred found the food to be too simple at first. he also missed having a car.“back home ,you pick up some friends in a car and go out to have a good time .in germany, you walk but you soon learn to like it .”at the same time, in america, mike ,a friendly german boy, was also forming his own ideas. “i suppose i should criticize american schools” he says , “it is far too easy for our level but i have to say that i like it a lot in germany, we do nothing but study. here we take part in many other activities. i think that maybe
