Last week in Italy was full of excitement and fun activities. The weather was amazing and people wonderful.

I mostly spent time with my 2 Italian hosts – Joel and Alex. We all stayed in Alex’s home and even though his parents didn’t speak English, it was a pleasure to stay with them. New experience for me was that I had to share a room with Alex’s sister. I have never shared a room in an exchange and it was a bit difficult for me. Luckily, we managed it very well.

The most I enjoyed last 2 days that we spent chilling next to the river and at the Mediterranian Sea. After a long winter in Estonia it was awesome to sunbath and swim in the nature. The whole trip was full of breathtaking views.

I definitely want to visit Italy again in the future and I recommend to students to take part in all the exchanges that are happening.

On the 17 to 23 of May we were in Italy. 

First of all, flying is very hard for me because my ears lock up when we start to land. But Italy itself is a beautiful place to visit. Everybody is so polite in comparison  to Estonians. 

Also, they have this funny thing of greeting everyday what is interesting. 

My Italian student was a bit strange always he wonders around not knowing what he is doing meanwhile other Italians are just talking with their loud voices. These exchanges are good for meeting new people and practising English. 

I hope that I will meet with the students again in the future and these exchanges should be done every year if it is possible.
