The arrival at the airport, the trip on the
train, and the arrival to Poland was confusing. After a good time spend in Krakow, we returned to Warsaw to
travel, this time, to Biala Podlaska, where I would spend one of the best weeks
of my life.
Miss
Asia, in a rush, handed out the project to every students. Daniel Caravela and
I met Kuba Gluchowski, a Polish student who welcomed us. That night, when I
went to bed, I was very anxious, because I didn’t know what to expect.
The
next day, my true adventure started, I met more Polish students. They are very
nice and I wish I could meet them again one day!
One
of the things I liked the most was the food, which is delicious and very rich,
although it is very different from ours. I was able to participle in making a
salad, which was very interesting.
Another
thing that called my attention was the way Polish people feel about religion.
There are churches everywhere, which are true master pieces and when I entered
some of them, I could feel history present!
I
also loved the dancing lessons. They have a very rich folklore. I think my
dancing lessons went rather well, despite their short time.
We
also had the opportunity to visit a farm with horses and I was delighted to be
near them and with the beauty of these animals and the way they were taken care
of. Each day I tried to learn a little more in all the activities that we
participated and I had a lot of fun.
From
all the experiences I went through, the one I liked, the least was the weather,
It was very cold! (ehehe) But I think no one does!
I
look forward to going back to Poland one day, because I miss them very much!
