I'm hoping to update this at least once a week while I'm over there with many photos of the people I meet and the things I experience, and most important of all - my learning of the language!
I am very excited as I've already got in contact with my family, who seem pretty down-to-earth and very welcoming to my foreign self. I've also got in contact with another exchange student called Sophie who's been telling me that everyone is waiting for this New Zealand boy with the funky accent, so it's a bit more comforting that there's actually a lot of people waiting for me.
The only problem is that I haven't even started packing...I don't actually have a clue what to bring... I know there's the usual things like clothes, toothbrush, books...But what else? It's a lot more difficult packing for 5 months than just a 1 week camp.
Well, that's really all I can think of to say on my first post and I'll be returning to this in a couple of weeks. So i'll leave you with a picture of a map showing everyone where I'm actually staying and a few links to my school's website and city's wikipedia.
Adios amigos
