My Fes Family

I have now been living with my host family for two days now. I was so nervous to meet them at first. I didnt want to do the wrong thing and hug them ...which is definitely not a social norm here. But when I calmed myself down and followed their lead I simply shook their hands.
My host mom and dad dont speak any english so it has been a challenge. They have four kids; two little ones, I would guess are around 9 and 2 older daughters.Luckily the daughter who is my age speaks pretty good english! We talked about how she loves facebook, twilight (she is on team edward) and  even lady gaga. The first night my host mom made the biggest dinner I have ever seen. It consisted of pancakes, moroccan soup, and spaghetti. While I could hardly put a dent in my plate it was all so delicious. I could definitely get used to all these amazing home cooked meals (no offense mom). And while spending time with my family Ive definitely noticed that they looooove their tv. Every night thats where we congregate to eat dinner. They like to watch some pretty bad soap operas I will say; but they also enjoy their american movies. The first night we all sat around the tv and watched titanic. I found it pretty funny that I was sitting in someone elses living room half way across the world and watching a movie Ive seen probably ten times.
Overall I feel like I got really lucky with my host family and I cant wait to get to know them better over these next 5 days.
