Schmidt-Diaz Family

Finally I have a picture of myself with my host family. They have been terrific, living with them has been a very good combination of help, conversation, good cooking, and also independence. I enjoy conversing with them and spending time with them, but they also have their own life and I have a lot of friends outside of the house, so it has been working out well.
The family consists of the two parents Wolfgang Schmidt (his grandparents immigrated to Chile from Germany) and Olga Diaz. They have two kids Wolfgang (Wolf) who is 24 and in medical school in Concepcion and Karen who is 21 and is studying Phsychology at Universidad de Concepcion (the larger University in town, not the one that I attend). Romina, Wolf´s girlfriend, is also around the house a lot and has been very friendly and helpful to me (part of this might be because finally I am the first male exchange students, all the rest had been girls and their room had been right next to Wolf. I think she might have been a little jealous :))
Olga cooks me all of my meals which usually consists of a breakfast of tea, bread and crackers with jelly and manjar (the closest thing the US has to manjar is caramel). Lunch is the biggest meal of the day and we usually have one or two plates (soup and then main dish...) and fruit for desert, I sometimes eat at the School cafeteria when it is more convenient although the food is definitely better at home. Once or dinner usually consists of sandwiches and tea.
