Hello, people of Primghar, Iowa! 👋🏼🇺🇸
Please share this post 🙏🏼
My name is Tristan Pugi, and I’m a foreign exchange student from a tiny country in Europe called Estonia 🇪🇪
This is my 3rd summer working with Southwestern Advantage, and this summer I’m here in the Primghar, Iowa area! 😊
I’m spending my summer introducing educational study guides and learning resources for students to help with schoolwork, as well as resources for parents, new math programs, and a jumpstart program for little ones to get them excited about reading and learning 📚✨
This summer experience is helping me work toward my bachelor’s degree back home in Estonia 🧑🏼🎓
I’m really excited to meet the wonderful people and families here in Primghar! 🥳
If I knock on your door, please don’t be surprised if you hear an accent — I’m from Estonia! 🇪🇪 If you’re not interested, that’s completely okay. I’ll simply thank you for your time and leave with a smile ❤️
I’m very grateful for how kind, welcoming, and understanding people have been during my summers in the United States. Your support means a lot to me!
🚙 If you see me around, I’ll be driving a blue Hyundai Tucson with license plate SDN958.
I’m excited to meet you all!
See you at your door! 👋🏼😊
