Yes I was, my parents wanted me to practice my english. I lived with a family in Indiana for a bit and then lived with another familly in North Dakota. Both families were different but I liked the one in Bismarck better, the girls from the Muncie family were mean to me the whole time. My parents booked the experience through a private agency, not really sure how that worked (it was the nineties).
ETA: I was 12 years old when I started the exchange and went back to my home country at 15

Are you saying you lived with another family in another country between 12 and 15 years of age? The whole time?
