So, it was my first trip so far.In the morning 15th May we met each other at the Narva bus station.All of us were nervous, but with a good mood.We checked all our luggage,documents,all what we needed and at 10.00 we started our long trip to UK.
I was really excited by the flight by plane, because I have never flyed before.The flight was fine, we had a good service and it was very a beautiful picture, we were looking in the window.
So, we successfully arrived to the Gatwic Airport and then to the London Bridge Station by train.
We had some problems with the train stations and it's timetable.By the end of the trip we all were very tired and were ready to sleep in the train until we get to our host families.
We all were very happy to arrive to Canterbury.It has been already dark and cold. The transport manager from Concorde Int. met us on the station.We sat into the cars and went to our families. We worried about, how it will be, the first meeting with family, what conditions will be there, but there weren't any problem with our accomodation.Our family is so friendly and kind, they always smile and try to do all for us to feel comfortable.
On that week I live with Kate together in our host family.We live together with girl Karla from Italy.Very nice girl, we spend a good time together.The family has a big dog Zuck.It is PitBull, but lovely and really kind dog , which comes to our room every morning =)))
From the first day we made a very good relationship with family members.They were kind to offer us to get to the school by car.
First day in Concorde we started with tests for our level of English.I did my best and had a good result.We devided into the smaller groups, according to our levels. I and Darja started studying together in one group.Our tichers' name is Rebecca.Girls, studying with us ,are from Thailand.They are so nice and friendly, they are always ready to work in team and very interested in study.
After lunch, which is 1,45 hour (where you can see such a long lunch? We are lucky!=), we have classes of Business with Denice. There we learn business ethiket, job skills, our companies and many other interesting things, which help us in future to find a good job and introduce all our capabilities.
On Tuesday, on classes of English, we learned the history of England, about the Normans,came to UK, what traditions they brought to this country and what they changed.
On the second class of English we came to Roman Museum.That's was amazing.Rebecca gave us a list of questions to answer during the excursion.It was really interesting.There are a lot of historical facts and old roman town, which was found there and the museum, built over him.We saw also roman baths in the other building.I couldn't imagine, that will see that things,which I have seen before only on TV.
On Wednesday we walked a lot in town.Took a lot of pictures,went shopping.
Thursday was a bit sad day.Students from Thailand of our group and a lot of other Japanese, Korean, Chinese are going home.It was their last day in school.We took photoes with them, gave to each other Skype, Facebook,E-mail contacts and different little presents.It were only 4 days,we studied with them, but they were really great.
On that day we had also last lesson with Denice.She gave us a good advice, what to do on our first day in the company.Her lessons were so interesting and useful,which helped us to talk more confident in English.
During the lunch today we visited Canterbury Cathedral.It is very beautiful.
We used to this town and this school,to these students.It will be difficult to leave to another city.But we need to get a good work experience.
On Friday,tomorrow we have last two classes of English until 12.30.Than we are going to spend free time together in Canterbury.
On Saturday morning we are going to London.Yes,it will be great!!!=))
On Sunday we are leaving Canterbury and go to other city,where our companies are situated.I and Julja are going to Maidstone.We will live with family,which work in our company.I think, it's good.=)))
