Today I want to tell you why I chose
the name Scotlandlover. Like the most of you know I spend 8 weeks in
Great Britain almost 2 years ago. I will never forget this time.
The first 5 weeks I spend some time in
Scotland with a friend of mine. We worked at an activity centre for
young people. Most time I cooked or done some housekeeping. In the
evening I often talked to my new friends (we are still in contact).
It was really nice to experience a new language. The first week I was
really nervous to talk English but after these few days I started
speaking.
I've met my best friend Jenny, there.
We often talk to each other by facebook and soon she'll come and
visit me.
The other 3 weeks I spend
in Leeds, England. I lived near the centre. My host parents called
Melanie and Andrew. They are such a nice and friendly couple. We've
done a lot of great things together like water-
skiing. I loved the
day we spend time by the coast.
These 8 weeks quickly
passed. The weeks away from home thought me self-reliance. Of course
I missed my family but I learned standing on my own and enjoy
friendship. Scotland was the best time of my life =)

AntwortenLöschenI'm glad that you took the chance and went to the UK. It's such a great experience to be able to "survive" on your own :-)
AntwortenLöschenAlso, I love Scotland! I've been twice to Edinburgh and also two weeks on a camp about 50km North of Edinburgh. The landscape is just incredibly awesome and the history of Scotland is so fascinating to me!
I guess you'll enjoy our next topic quite a lot :-)
