We gathered at breakfast at 8 o’clock in the morning and around 10 some Latvian students came to the hostel to pick us up for school. We went there with the bus and luckily nobody got a fee this time, as Nikita did on the first 5 minutes in Latvia.
The building of the school was quite old just like, half of the buildings in the city… but all we were really curious about the toilets, because old building or not, we were sure they couldn’t be as bad as those at our school.
Anyway, we went to the top floor where the principal, a teacher and some students (all Latvian) did some presentations about the school and Latvia and its culture. We also got to know the Latvian students a little better thanks to some little games. Well done!!
Around 2 o’clock we had lunch and after that we did a sightseeing game around the old city so we learned about the history and had to do some fun tasks with the Latvians.
After that we had the evening off and went back to the hostel where some of us crashed in the couches and others went out again to go to the shopping mall just around the corner or just wander around a bit.
I think that after all it was a really nice day and we had quite some time to socialize with the Latvian students, which is of course an important part of this whole experience! (:
