« I really enjoyed that one week at my host family, Bonnichon. They were quite kind with me and I got everything which was needed. However, mostly I couldn’t make a deep conversation with them, I suppose the cause was that, I didn’t speak french on a nigh level. The place where I lived for that time was amazing near to the sea! At Bonnichon family, I could get into the french culture and folks, too. Every dinner was really delicious, mostly typical french meals, I enjoyed it so much! I wanna say a big thank you for that family hosting me for that week! »

It was a big fun to be with the Simon family. The feeling of the family is quite happy, and they really like to laugh. Although I could not understand, what they were talking with each other, it was nice to listen to them with. We had to speak in French with each other, however, I am in the basic level of speaking that language. But it was good, that we had to speak in French, because it was a very good practice. Now I have the motivation to learn French much more. I could see a typical French family’s life in Bretagne. All the lunch and dinner was good, I could taste typical French foods. The place of the house where they live is very beautiful, with animals and a nice garden. Again, I am really thankful for the family

The journey was incredibly great. I really liked the country the school and the people. I loved the ocean. It was the first time i saw it and swam in it so it was a truly beautiful and awesome experience. Although i liked the school next time i would spend less time in it and would spend more time outside. The French students were mostly nice and helpful but they were not the best in English. The project work was good and most of the students prepared well so the presentations were enjoyable and interesting. I also liked the creativity challenge. It was good. ALL the sights we have visited were great and i liked all of them. And the family was really good. They were nice,kind and were absolutely good to me i felt like i was a familymember. I’m very thankful to them.

- How did you like the journey?
Well, it was a really special experience to see the French lifestyle. I enjoyed the new place, the peaceful nature and the happy atmosphere. It was good to be with satisfied people and I felt myself beloved and inspired. - What did you like the best?
It’s easy to answer, see the ocean was the best! It was amazing how powerful and calm is it. Having a picnic there was just like a dream, because in Hungary we don’t have as giant water as the ocean. The air is so fresh there, and the landscape is lovely. - What would you change?
I think it would be better with more free time, because we didn’t have enough time to speak, play or go out together with the French students. - How did you find the cooperation with French students?
For me it was nice and interesting, I had really kind team mates. We laughed a lot, I didn’t feel the differences between us, we were young, we were crazy. I think we understood each other well, even if we didn’t have the same language. - What is your opinion about project work?
I believe it was a good start for our cooperation. The topics were actual and interesting but a little bit difficult. - What is your opinion about creativity challenge work?
It was funny and strange. We didn’t really get to known each other, we just solved a problem together. Although during this period of time it was nice and I think we had a good time. - How did you like the sightseeing tours?
In France there are so many things to see and we definitely didn’t have enough time to visit every important place, but fortunately we saw as many sights as we could, but we always needed to hurry. I liked the idea to make a competition while searching the places. - Did you feel good with the host family?
Yes! I enjoyed the hospitality of the Ouisse family, the best people in Bretagne. They were really kind, helpful and funny. They thought me a lot of thing, and I felt myself as if I would be a member of the family. I am grateful to them.

- How did you like the journey?
I really enjoyed the trip. I really like that place (the ocean, the typical french towns, the people, the fields), it was beautiful, we could talk with some french student. The teachers were kind to us. - What did you like the best?
The best for me was the ocean. It is seldom, that I can see an ocean. - What would you change?
At the ocean I would spend more time, and sometimes have much more time to look around by myself. I mean without a leader. I could visit places, that the group may not want to see, but I am interested in it. - How did you find the cooperation with French students?
The class we were working with was good. They were communicative, kind, friendly, they could speak english, and were active in the project. Unfortunately with the other classes (for example when we had a discussion) were a bit worse, mainly because they did not speak english. - What is your opinion about project work?
If the topics are interesting, than I prefer them. They have to be interesting even for a teenager. This time few of them were quite interesting. - What is your opinion about creativity challenge work?
I did not really like to make a board game, but the idea of making something new is a good project. - How did you like the sightseeing tours?
The sightseeing tours were interesting, but as I wrote in a previous answer, I would be glad for extra time, when I do not have to move with the group. - Did you feel good with the host family?
Yes, the host family was very cute, they helped me, and it was comfortable to be there. Mainy we spoke in french, so it was a good practise.
