In February, TTPL welcomed Alba – a Business Management Degree student from Valencia. Here's Alba's take on her first two months in Torquay:
Do you
want to work in a foreign country and learn a different language too? If you
think about this for too long maybe it will seem hard, but the experience is
unforgettable! Let me tell you about my short experience…
I’m a
Spanish girl and I arrived in Torquay last February. I remember when I said
goodbye to my parents in the airport and I was very confused about the new area
that I would live in for five months.
My first days
in a new country were a bit odd because I had to know new places and talk in a different
language, but here the people are very kind and they try to help you if they
can. Nevertheless you make a daily habit quickly!
Since I started my internship at TTPL I feel well received and every day they help
me to improve my English. Furthermore, when I go to my new home, I spend a lot
of time talking with my host family.
During my
first two months here, I have had many experiences and visited lots of different
places, and I can say that it is amazing! At the moment, I’ve visited lots of places
near Torquay, and if you want to take beautiful photos and spend all day around
nature, I recommend you that visit Berry Head in Brixham, it’s really
nice!
I decided
to come here because I want to learn more English and understand different cultures
and work habits in another country. Before I arrived, I thought that it maybe was
a difficult adaptation, nevertheless now I can say this is a tremendous
opportunity to grow and meet new people.
