Hey, my name
is Paola I’m 18 and I come from Italy.
When I
arrived in England the first thing that I thought was: “ the weather is very
terrible, I can’t survive here for a month”!
Fortunately
the weather and the temperature became better and I started to get used to the
English clime.
In the
starting days I attended school and after I worked for 3 weeks.
My work
placement was in The Training Partnership Ltd in Torquay; here people are very
helpful, friendly and funny especially Nadine and Sam! I worked in marketing
sector with Lorenzo, he was very kind and available to repeat and explain me
when I didn’t understand. I liked this work placement and I knew the office job
and clime!
In the free
time me and my Italian group visited lots of cities like Bristol, Plymouth,
Exeter and Cockington Village. We went to the sea and stayed there all day, it
was very relaxing ;) I went to pub of Torquay like Mambo and others, but I went
shopping because here there are many good shops.
Every
Thursday the TTPL organize a meeting for all students, every time in a different
place, we went to the water park or bowling for example, it was very amusing and a way to know new
people from different countries.
My host
family was perfect and like me upon I arriving. My host parents were funny and
spoke a lot with me and my friend, the house was beautiful and the food was
very good because my host mother likes cooking!! The English people think outside of the box
and have an open mind, here there aren’t prejudices and everyone is free wear
the clothes he likes without feeling ashamed… I love this!
I hope to
come back here in the future and call in to see my host family!
Paola
