Me as a Swede ( mhm yeah) I’ve been able to speak English fluently since I was in second grade. But we Swedes learn English in daycare and then has it as a (shit I forgot) in third gradee
@@alissaasmr526 yeah in Finland we talk trash English ngl... But i have just played some video games and i've talked English there. I Love Sweden! Hej :)
Well I was planned to be born in Kosovo where half of my family lives (the other half lives in Beograd) but I was born in Norway. I'm 12 years old and I speak very good English but my grammar isn't always the best sometimes and there are still words I don't understand. But In Norway we learn English alot (well in my school we do) and that helps us alot. But I haven't experienced school back in Beograd or Kosovo but when dad went to school in Kosovo he had to learn Albanian and Russian so if I went to a school there maybe I wouldn't learn English😶 But idk how schools are like in Beograd or any places around Serbia and Kosovo today
Her pronunciation could be a lot better tbh. That's a major issue, that involves all of Scandinavia. A lot of us are great at English, but we're really struggling with the pronunciation (not me, my father grew up in California - therefore I learnt to speak English before I was taught to speak Danish). I'd say that the Danish accent is worst, since a lot of us are having trouble pronouncing the 'r', it sounds more like a 'w'. Sweden takes a second place, because most of them honestly sound like they're trying to imitate an Indian accent - such as this girl^. Norway's definitely doing best, what can I say? They're just naturals lmao
@@lucasantoro3280 not really, moved from Switzerland to the US and honestly if ya ask me it's a lot worse in Europe then the US, but no matter what you'll be judged anywhere
Uggggg you had the best videos on TH-cam, I wish you didn’t private them all so much. You should make a subscription wall so people can pay monthly to see all of your videos if you still have them because I literally would. So calming and so pretttyyy. Hello from Maryland in America by the way! 😊
I don't see how that's bad. It takes a lot of skill to fly a plane so how is it bad to show your gratitude that they flew it successfully and it didn't crash?
like in sweden, we learn in total three languages under school. swedish and english is the major ones (all have to learn) then in sixth grade you can choose: french, spanish or german :) so that’s why she’s good at english :)
I’m danish and I would love to go to the USA with EF as well! I talked to a girl who has been an exchange student in America for like an hour today haha
I know this is a year later, and this year has been crazy and has honestly brought out the worst of my home the USA, but if ya still wanna come over when things are safer we'd love to have ya! Also, I immigrated to the states a couple years back and honestly it's not as bad as it seems. Stuff certainly happens, but those aren't wide spread in the slightest, they are usually in big city areas
Welcome to the United States I hope you have an amazing year, you’ve got Halloween, thanksgiving, Christmas, New Years, And Easter and please visit my beautiful state California
You left your home on 24th!! I’ll leave my home on Sep 24th to London for 2years😛 Anyway, good luck with your exchange life!! I’m sure it will be wonderful experiences🥰
I just found your channel and video, and I have to say; have fun there in the U.S. Looking forward to see your future videos about life there and all! :) - Och lycka till där borta! :)
@@cookielover7327 things have been crazy in the US recently, but I hope you still get to come and see the great side of things. As someone who moved here I can say as much as sadly bad things do happen, the media certainly hypes them up a lot more then what's true
@@hinklefamily1831 unfortunately I don’t it was a very hard decision but I decided to cancel my exchange year because of the whole corona situation but thanks asking🥰
I was searching for "first day un usa" and i found you i think you become my favorite youtuber ever only from 2 videos i've seen 😄 (sorry for mistakes i'm from slovakia)
I really want to do this bit for the full four years and I really hope I get good enough grades to get a scholarship as that's the only way I can go as it's really expensive and it seems really cool to live in a dorm with a roommate and even tho it's like five years away I'm really excited.
Hey, your videos really made me thinking about wanting to be an exchange student? But I don’t know very much about it, how did you become an exchange student?
I know i’m late but I hope I can help, basically all you have to do is google “Student exchange programs in “insert your country”, and multiple programs should appear, click on one of them and there should be clear instructions on how to apply (usually by filling a specific form on the program’s website). You have multiple options, some programs offer full scholarships (you don’t have to pay for anything) and you’ll have to pay for others, it depends on what program you choose
@@your.favorite.detective25 thanks a lot! I was actually supposed to go to Bristol, England for two weeks this summer but i cancelled it because of corona
Hi! I think what you are doing is so awesome, I really want to do this one day. I don’t know if you will read this but I would appreciate if you could give some information , like with what company (idk if that is the word) did you do this year abroad? You would really help me! Thanks anyway! Keep up the good work💕💕
Hi guys am from kenya and am turning 18 this September i like to be an exchange student in USA plz can someone guide me to apply for it .Thank you so much
I’m trying to get out of the US so I don’t die here ( I live in California) and u fly over here to the US for school 🥺😔have fun tho and stay safe ALWAYS💜✨
Marieke de Vries if u live the US u would know, but I’m guessing u don’t so basically we are always in danger of shootings in public there was Palo Alto the target was Mexicans (I’m Mexican) he killed I think about 20. Then not even a day later there was Dayton, America is the heart of shootings in public, school, homes, ETC
@nini Omg.... you’re literally reacting to the shootings the way the shooter/enemy wants you too. Enemies want you to live in fear and fear them, so you’re giving them just what they want! More people die in car crashes than shootings each year. On average 3,287 die from car crashes each and every day. What’s the point of living if you’re just living in fear and be scared to go to school, the mall, concerts, etc? No matter what anyone does in life such as working out all day, having the best health insurance, staying away from concerts because u fear shootings, or drinking protein shakes, we’re all going to die no matter what, so go out and live life! -just some words from a Californian
CBeach yes okay but u see that’s not me good for u you’re living ur life, being Mexican I’m scared they will do things to my family. Simple I don’t I feel safe here yes we die but now is not the time correct also I’m not scared of going to concerts I just get worried for many reasons one being my life two being my anxiety gets bad in crowds
wait but how does it work? do you pay your rent in arizona? how did you decide to move there? do you pay for college? like how does everything work because i was an au pair for two years and i wonder it it works similar but youre just not taking care of kids vut going to college?
when she hugged her dog i was in tears 😭😭
Eyla lbs me too😭😭 i would cry so much if need to say good bye to my dog😭
i have a dog and my dream is to be an exchange student in usa if my dream come true i don’t know how to say goodbye that’s gonna be so painful
Eyla lbs ME FUCKING TOO
Eyla lbs sameeeee
Eyla lbs me too
Okay but can we talk about the fact how perfect Your english is

It’s not bad it takes a lot of skill to land a plane so it’s nice.
@@phathumareda1379 Its not because Pilots dont want it as its disturbing for them
@@tbi1204 same i always clap after we land like someones gotta be nice
