We met today in the Blue Hills in Milton to hike together up to an outlook to enjoy the view over the Boston skyline. Up on the hill we had a picnic together and talked about the outdoors and about plants who are not familiar to many aupairs who come from places where they don’t exist: Poison Ivy. Since none of them has leaves yet, they are hard to find but it’s best to know about them before the leaves are out. I guess everybody is now aware of the “leaves of three, let them be” in order to avoid rashes on themself and the children.<\/p>\n

We celebrated the award of the snowman contest which we had after our Nemo blizzard: Lynn from Germany won the first prize and got a T-shirt : I Love Boston<\/p>\n

\"P1080879We also celebrated Jia ‘s award she got from AIFS for her volunteering at a Boston food pantry. She won the 2’nd prize in this national\u00a0 volunteering award competition.<\/p>\n

\"P1080892Jia talked to the whole group about her experience with volunteering and encourage them to do this too since it is so rewarding for her.<\/p>\n

\"P1080885Two new aupairs arrived last week in our cluster: Veronica from Colombia and Anja from Germany. Both of them were able to attend our meeting already and had a great chance to get in contact with many other aupairs on our hike.<\/p>\n
