It is the time when roasted turkey, yams, and stuffing fill the table, and families and friends get together to give thanks for the good things in life. But how to celebrate Thanksgiving when you are miles away or a foreigner in the States? <\/p>\n<p>Sydney Miller, an exchange student from San Diego State University, is co-hosting Thanksgiving at her apartment in Rotterdam together with an American friend. \u201cWe invited our closest friends over to bring in the holiday. We will be preparing a typical Thanksgiving meal. We pre-ordered a massive turkey, and there will be yams, stuffing, cranberry sauce, green-bean casserole, and pumpkin pie \u2013 to name a few\u201d. <\/p>\n<p> <strong>Important American holiday<\/strong><\/p>\n<p> Whereas most Dutch people have probably never sat around a table with family and friends to celebrate Thanksgiving, it is one of the most important holidays in the States. \u201cThanksgiving is really a big deal here. We have a short vacation. Everyone is excited to go home, and many students are talking about shopping on Black Friday as well,\u201d says Anne van der Pijl, a Dutch student currently on exchange in Michigan. <\/p>\n<p> <strong>Thanksgiving: A little like Sinterklaas<\/strong><\/p>\n<p> Alexandra van Hoek, a third-year International Media and Communication (IBCoM) student also on exchange in Michigan, agrees. To her, it feels a little like the Dutch Sinterklaas. But then again, \u201cI only knew what to expect from movies. I have to say it is a little less extreme than that \u2013 among college students at least.\u201d<\/p>\n<p> <strong>Delicious smells and foods<\/strong><\/p>\n<p> Either way, being a foreigner in the States does not mean that one cannot celebrate Thanksgiving. \u201cI am definitely celebrating Thanksgiving,\u201d says Maurice Pagano, a Dutch student on exchange in Santa Barbara, California. \u201cWe started cooking some days ago. So I have a house full of delicious smells.\u201d NL<\/p>\n\n\t<div data-name=\"acf\/posts\" class=\"alignfull py-6 md:py-8 lg:py-10 bg-white\" >\n\t\t<div
