Foreign exchange student Irina Logunkova of Sytvkar, Russia, visited Los Altos for three weeks during August and September. Los Altos Sister Cities Inc. sponsored Logunkova, who attended the Foothill College Work Experience Program.

Logunkova also visited Los Altos in 2000 and worked at Linden Tree Children’s Recordings & Books. Her host family, Pat and Betty Farrell of Los Altos, held a reception Aug. 31 that included Sister Cities board members and previous host families.

The Farrells took Logunkova to Disneyland, Universal Studios, Hollywood, Lake Tahoe and the beach in Southern California. Logunkova said Los Altos is her dream place to live.

In Russia, Logunkova teaches English to air-traffic controllers.
