from the Pacific,

Baiiey says France was her first
choice. .

“T said I'd go anywhere they
didn’t speak English,’ she said.

Urbanoski says he was inter-

or South Africa, Turkey was not
at the top of his list. °.

“They put Turkey in my
mouth,’ he laughs, referring. ta
local Rotary Club representatives.

It’s the first year this district
will exchange with Turkey, and
local reps wanted to take ad-
vanlage of the opportunity.

He is nevertheless eager for.the |

adventure, amid jokes about bec-
