The experience I had in Belfast was wonderful because I tried new things and met new people with whom I practiced my English and made friends. The first few days I found it difficult to speak with the host family, but Anne and Adam were very welcoming and kind. It was nice attending the Holywood school; […]
It was a wonderful holiday for me. I have to admit that at first I was a bit embarrassed because I was in a new city, with a different culture, and above all, a different language. During the first few days, I had a lot of trouble speaking English, but I think I’ve definitely improved […]
This year I enjoyed the course, even though it was shorter, because I had time to talk to new people. I really liked the very different activities we did such as the blacksmith, the pole skipping and baking.

Everyone here is so welcoming and kind, always with a large smile on their face. The […]
