Interview+with+Rikka

Riikka came to America from Finland on August 8th, 2009. The reason that Riikka came to the United States was because she was an exchange student through Rotary. Riikka came to America because she thought it would be an interesting experience and she had studied the language for eight years before she came. Because Riikka is an exchange student through the Rotary, she still has her entire family back in Finland. When Riikka came to the United States she had to leave all of her family behind. She and her family were sad about her leaving but they also knew she was coming back in a year. So after the year 2009-2010, she will return to her family back in Finland but she won't forget all of the friends she has made in America.
