Francesco D...
SHAPE Middle School
Hello, I am Francesco and I'm a military kid. Being a military kid is not all rainbows and roses because you have to change schools, friends, and homes. That is very hard for a 12-year-old boy like me because when I was 3 years old, I had to move to America for 3 years, and then after I made friends in America I had to move to Italy for 6 years and then I had to move to Belgium for another 3 years. It can be a good experiment and thanks to the 3 years in America, I learned English and now I speak and understand it very well and I have visited basically all of America. I even went to the Death Valley. This is the hotel's place in the world and some of my friends in Italy can't even imagine doing what I did at only ⅚ years old. Now that I'm in Belgium I made some amazing friends and that is amazing. Being a military kid has its ups and downs. It is ok and I can say this because I’m a military kid, too.
