In this episode, host Kelsey Ross speaks to Aya, an exchange student from Morocco who came to the United States thanks to the YES Scholarship. Aya shares with us what life has been like for her on exchange, how she continued her love of gymnastics while in the U.S., how she created deep connections with her host family and school community, and why she dreamed of going to school in a big yellow school bus.
