Imagine a vibrant summer ambiance at Strandcamping Oase in Julianadorp (The Netherlands), where up to 1,000 vehicles enter and exit the camping daily. This idyllic coastal location is gaining lots of attraction from guests.
The weeks surrounding Christmas became a busy time for Carola Kreuk, a visitor from the Netherlands.
As a guest of the Chad and Dana Stephens family in Denison, Carola, age 17, had three big Christmas celebrations â one in Orange City with Danaâs mother, another one at the Stephens household with Chadâs mother and sister, and a third with Danaâs father in Hospers.
In any other year, Carola would have been staying with the Stephens family for an entire school year through the Education First (EF) high school exchange program.
But, like all plans made for 2020, they were diverted by the COVID-19 pandemic.
