[quote=Anonymous]OP, you don't say what the agreement was prior to matching with the family. I would find it pretty unusual if the family didn't know about this wedding and trip prior to matching with you.  Did they tell you they were going and would take you along, all expenses paid?  If you knew about this trip and the fact that you would be staying home for it when you matched, you really have no right to gripe now.  If you really want to see Mexico, you could always offer to use your vacation week, buy a plane ticket, book a hotel room where they are staying and go with them.  But, of course, why would a 20-something woman want to spend her own time and money to hang out with her host family?  Only if they were footing the bill and if she was being paid by them to boot.  They don't need an AP at a family wedding, there will be all sorts of family around who will be overjoyed to spend time with your HC for free.  So unless you want to pay your own way, stay home and enjoy the peace and quiet.javascript:void(0);[/quote]
