The door opened and I walked in. It was so beautiful inside. It reminded me of my house back home which was good at least somethings are some what the same.
"Okay so do you want me to show you around or are you hungry or thirsty?" My aunt asks me as she shuts the front door behind us. "Yeah a tour around the house would be nice and thank you but I'm all set right now." I say with a smile. "okay you can just leave your bags right here and we can bring them up to your room later." She says as she starts to walk to show me the house "Okay follow me and I"ll show you around." I follow close behind her as she makes her way to the kitchen.

My Aunt has showed me the whole house and now all that's left is my room. "Okay Dana are you ready to see your room?" She asks me as we stand out out of my bedroom door. "Sure I can't wait to see it." I say to her as she opens the door and the two of us walk in. It looks a lot like my room back at home. All of my stuffed had been previously shipped to Nebraska before my arrival. A few things had been set up but a lot was still in boxes. It was about the same size as my room back home maybe a little bit bigger. I had a balcony that over looked the back yard where there was a pool and and beautiful garden.
"So what do you think Dana?" My aunt asks me as she walks up behind me. I was speechless. I thought I was going to hate living here but so far it wasn't so bad. Everything up until now has been great actually. The only thing that would make it better is if my friends from back home where here but other than that I'm not missing anything about home. "I love it. Everything is beautiful. Thank you for letting me live here with you." I say to my Aunt with a big genuine smile on my face. I was so happy to be here. "Oh you're welcome sweetie and I'm glad that you like it so much." She pauses for a second before she begins to talk again. "So do you want to bring the rest of you're bags up and we can get you for the most part well situated. "That would be great." I said following her out of the room to get my bags and bring them upstairs to my room.
This place just felt like home. I felt comfortable and safe. Life here was so simple but I liked it. My aunt is wonderful. She's so approachable and I feel like I can be open with her about anything. She's assuming the role of a mother quite well. More so than my mom has and ever will.
