Seven weeks in Lorient

 My last days are over. On monday we exchanged our presents in school. We had orientation this week, which means, we snuck into different jobs and got inspiration for what we maybe want to do later. It was very interesting and actually helpful. Today we had breakfast in school and met a few students, who talked about their different experiences. In the end of class it was time to say goodbye to everyone. It was obviously sad. They did’nt hesitate one second to introduce me since the very beginning and were allways trying to include me in everything. Everyone was so nice, the teachers, my class, ecspecially my hostfamily and of course my exchange partner. I made new friends, laughed a lot, learned more and more french and made wonderful memories. Tomorrow I will be taking the train back home. I will take all these memories with me and be forever grateful. So whoever is reading this or already red my blog, I hope you liked it. If you ever have the possibility to do such an excha...

 My last whole week is coming to an end. Now I only have five days left in Lorient . It‘s crazy how fast time has passed. This week we had our last regular class, as we will have career orientation next week. This means we‘ll be finished earlier with the classes next week as well. Yesterday, we visited a nearby town and a small castle. It was very charming and we were very lucky with the weather. It was sunny and warm. Later we went through the little city and just looked around. We visited a church, which was stunning with all the details and the big coloured glasses. After we went to a small Christmas market and ate original breton crêpes , it was so good. Tomorrow we are going to give eachother the presents for secret santa . Im so happy, that I‘ll be able to see my family again soon, especially for the festive days. Of course I‘m still trying to enjoy my last days in France.

 Monday we played Basketball in school again. Its allways very tiring, because we have school till 17:25pm on monday‘s. It starts to get more rainy every day, even though the first weeks were so sunny. In school, my class is doing secret santa this year, so we went shopping with friends to find matching, little gifts. We were all successful and bought little presents. We‘re going to exchange them in the last week before the holidays, so in the last week I will spend here. Sometimes I play a bit piano, when Im bored and the day before yesterday I finally won in checkers. Maybe the first and last time, but still. Yesterday the brother of my exchange partner came over for a visit. We all went into a cinema nearby and watched a mystery movie. It was in french, so obviously hard to understand, but it was fun.
