Exchange, Tuesday 11-05-2010

Hello and Welcome back!
In this entry I'd like to give you an update of how things went in the last exchange we had on Tuesday 11-05-2010.
I'd like to begin by saying that it was a great success yet again, and we achieved to gather a whole of 20 people throughout the exchange. However, these 20 were not together at the same time, because some people came earlier and also had to leave earlier, etc etc...
From five past eight to around quarter to nine, we had the pleasure of counting with no less than 6 native speakers from different parts of the USA. They, however, had to leave quite early, so most of the people that came later, couldn't meet them. It's a real pity they had to leave so early, because we could have really enjoyed their company, and also we would have had a very didactic session.
Aaaanyway, the thing is, that soon after the 6 American natives left, the rest of the people started to arrive. A total of 13 people plus a person from Finland.
The session was quite fun and dynamic, and we got to speak and practice our oral English very well. We also learnt a lot about the military service in Finland and we had a couple of newcomers too.
All in all, we had a great time, but nothing like the exchanges we'd been having from about two months back when we used to get around 25 people. We must try to achieve that again.

I'd finally like to apologise for not having any photographs for you from this Tuesday, but I will definetly try to change that for next Tuesday. I will just have to remember to take the camera.

Thank you very much for reading this, and, also, I hope to see you next Tuesday!!^^
