A Memorable Thanksgiving

This past Thanksgiving, we had the joy of participating in the Madison Friends of International Students holiday hosting program for the first time—and what a memorable experience it turned out to be!


Our group included four international students paired with us by MFIS. We also had my best friend from college, who was an international student at our college, from Chicago, as well as a local friend from Madison. 


Our meal was full of the traditional foods; however, the meal was completely vegan. The real highlight came afterward when we played a couple of lively rounds of Secret Hitler, a deduction game that had everyone laughing, scheming, and bonding in no time. It was the perfect icebreaker! By the end of the evening, phone numbers had been exchanged, and new friendships had been formed.


We're so grateful to Madison Friends of International Students for connecting us with such wonderful guests and for helping make this holiday so meaningful. It was a beautiful reminder of how sharing food, games, and stories can bridge cultures and create lasting connections.
