Looking back, for me the most important part of the time in Gragnano was

meeting all these new people from different countries, with different languages and a different way of living their everyday life. Creating all those memories and friendships and having to communicate with a language that is not my native one. Although I was afraid of it, I’m also glad we did the presentations

and the workshop to improve our public speaking skills. I think this exchange

was also a good possibility to learn how to find compromises (for example

for the presentations) with different types of people.

I think I enjoyed those nameless small moments the most I spent with my exchange partner and other friends.

I also really liked to learn something new everyday and I think the program of the week was quite interesting. I don’t have a favorite experience because every day was special & different.

I really don’t have a lot of things that I would have done differently.. I‘m really happy with my time there and the experiences I made. But maybe, if I could go back now, I would tell myself not to worry so much about everything since it turned out being great

I wanted to improve my english and although I don’t think I learned thousands of new vocabularies this exchange really helped me. The most of the people you were spending your day with don’t know a word in your native language so you have no other chance than to communicate in english - no matter how hard it sometimes gets. You learn how to express & help yourself when you don’t know the exact vocabulary while telling a story - because you have no other choice. And I think that is a great way to improve your english.

I also wanted this exchange to get to know new people and new cultures because you don’t get many chances to live in a real italian family and see their daily life, even to be a small part of it for a week. When you travel to a country as a tourist, you‘re never going to learn nearly as much about it as we did as exchange students and I’m really happy about that.

And last but not least of course I wanted to make some incredible memories with lovely people and I totally achieved that !

Thank you <3
