Irene's notes

Irene

-Tenerife is a tropical paradise: it gives relaxation and quiet to inhabitants and visitors

-Environment is more respected than in Italy: you don't see garbage on the road

- People are very hospitable, and we were always comfortable

-Students talk piffle during the lessons (not acceptable here..!!)

- The sand is grey: a very special feature!!!

- Lizards are big and black!

- My family was very hospitable: I was lucky because Gabriela's father is Italian and sometimes I could speak Italian at home (he's very good at cooking, too!!)

- The house was similar to ours, but no bidet in the bathroom, like in English houses...

- The family meets for meals, like here, in my home

-I find this experience a very happy one and I hope to see my friends there, again!!!

My Canarian adventure.

The trip has been very beautiful and productive, especially living with a new, foreign, family. This has been very welcoming, hospitable and friendly.

I have discovered a few differences between our schools.. (ours is more severe and disciplined!!) . Tenerife is gorgeous..

I thank everybody for this "extra" experience, and I send you all my best greetings..:-).

Our Tenerife special experience!!!

Fabio

I have felt really well with Daniel's family: you are very friendly and kind. I was specially impressed by your 4-year-old child, Samuel, who has been immediately very tender!

Santa Cruz and Puerto De La Cruz are very beautiful cities, which everybody should visit! El Teide.. the ocean.. Even the sand...Your sand is different: dark and brown.. because of your volcanoes... ours is light yellow.. almost golden...

There, in Tenerife,environment is more respected. No rubbish around like here ...:-(

People are very welcoming, in fact we have always felt at our ease..

Here school is more severe...

I hope to meet you again!!.........Ciao.
