This is Maddie's German Friend, Jorge


Maddie met Jorge on a previous trip to Thailand in April. They hit it off right away and remain good friends. He is amazing to me because he plays the piano beautifully by ear (you would love him mom!) and even more impressive is that he moved here from Germany last year, he did not know any English or Thai and had to start school not being able to communicate at all! Now he speaks fluent English, Thai and, of course, German, and some Spanish and Chinese too! Wow! These kids here are amazing!
