[00:00.00]Her parents were slightly nervous

[00:02.73]experiencing some negative feelings

[00:05.79]about Megan leaving the safety of

[00:07.76]home to live in another country.

[01:04.43]for the next six months,

[01:06.41]made her feel right at home.

[01:08.26]As the pace of life

[01:10.88]on the island was more

[01:12.75]relaxed than at home,

[01:14.39]she was very happy.

[01:16.25]Her new schoolmates included her

[01:19.31]in their lives and

[01:21.71]she adapted quickly.

[01:24.01]Swimming in the warm ocean water,

[01:26.75]and sitting underneath 3 waving
