MY TRIP TO BELGIUM

The trip to Thuin was very good! It began on Friday September 21th when we took the flight with Ryanair, but the trip was pretty good in general. When we arrived in Thuin families received us and already we went home. My family was very nice, and Maïlys and her sister, Solene, I loved them, were lovely and I was treated as another member of the family. With regard to the language I had no problem since it is there that spoke French and I am bilingual and also practiced English because they had other kids of the Comenius project from England and Poland. In general the trip was very good and I would go back. I think it is a very good way to improve the languages and to meet new people.

Hello Belgium

In mid-September we went to a small but beautiful town Thuin. The trip was organized as part of the project “Comenius - Europe United”. There were also students from the UK and Spain. Before leaving Poland, I heard a lot of about Belgium, that there is European Parliament, that it is famous for chocolate and pommes frites.
When I was waiting in the school for my host, I was a little nervous, but when we met, I immediately calmed down and went to his house. His parents and younger brother greeted me very warmly. We went to Brussels with Corentin , where we saw a lot of interesting things, such as the Grand Place and the Atomium. The capital is very large and there are a lot of cars. I really liked old and narrow streets. I really like Belgium, I hope that someday I will have the opportunity to come back and see Brussels again. Marcin

Belgium my love;)

I was in Thuin, Belgium in September. Comenius which is a project that my school is taking part in, let me and my mates to go there. I instantly fell in love with Belgium. Belgium is really green and hilly. Bricked small houses and narrow streets give to this place an amazing looks.
Belgium is famous for chocolate and fries and people are really friendly out there. I went sightseeing a lot with my host - Amondine and her parents. I was in Bruxelles, Maredsous, Dinant,Charleroi and Marcinelle. I met new culture and interesting people. I think that trip was amazing. I learn a lot out there. I hope to visit Belgium soon.

Belgium Experience

21st – 26th September I was in Belgium with the Comenius project “ Europe United”. It was a great experience and a little vacation ;) I’m glad that I had the chance to be a part of this trip group. I met so many wonderful people, I think that Belgium is an amazing country and the city where I stayed-Thuin is a small and very beautiful, and amazing city . My host was a nice girl at my age, although she didn’t speak English very well, we were could understand each other through gestures and vocabulary translated on a laptop. I think that this visit was a great and amazing experience and I hope that in the future I will go to the Belgium again.
