Try some home-made sushi

We had a huge international party with all of the adult students and the local community. We cooked food, showed each other famous traditions and customs from our countries and made the people from the village feel welcome.

T2 – London calling – Academic trip

WP_20140724_005

Here we are in London getting to know some of the most famous places in the city (and in the World).

 

This is the second time we’ve been to London this course and this trip was with our teachers and gave us the chance to investigate the history and culture of the city.

We travelled by train and tube which gave us a new view of the city – mixing with Londoners and tourists in this incredible place.

At Kings Cross station. Is this the way to Hogwarts?

 

We had to research the places before we went and then give presentations at each place, acting as tour guides for our class mates. Some other tourists even started listening to our presentations because they thought we knew what we were talking about!!
