Alaska, a pleasant surprise for Lebanese exchange student

Rim Khayata

 

   Every year teenagers from around the world come to the United States to study as exchange students. Some wind up in Alaska where the culture shock is just that much more than it would be in the Lower 48. One of the students in Kenai this year is Rim Khayata, a junior at Kenai Central from Beirut, Lebanon.

She spoke with KDLL’s Jay Barrett about her country and attending school here.
