Photo By: Lauren Graeve Audubon High School received three foreign exchange students for the 2013-2014 school year through the AFS program. One of the three is Karl Segerborg of Sweden. He is enjoying his year so far and said, “It has been an awesome experience so far. Time has gone by very quickly.”
Segerborg's host parents are Mark and Sandy Nissen of Audubon. “The Nissens are a great family and fun to live with. We do lots of fun stuff together, like going places.” He also enjoys hanging out with Bradley Nissen, son of Mark and Sandy, and said, “I am also very happy to have a brother who is almost the same age as I am.”
Segerborg was a very successful kicker for the football team and enjoys participating in the arts. “Music activities like band and chorus have been my favorite school activities so far.” Segerborg is a very talented musician and is capable of playing multiple instruments in band, including the guitar, piano, xylophone, cello, snare drums and more.
His favorite American food is Casey’s pizza. He claims, “I didn’t know taco pizzas existed before I came here.” He’s noticed many differences between America and Sweden since his arrival. Some major ones he mentions are the interaction of people and the use of the car. “In Sweden we don’t use the car nearly as much as you do,” he said.
Segerborg looks forward to the rest of his school year here in America and said, “I can’t believe it was about 100 days ago when I arrived.”
