I was happy to take part in the exchange programme and to go to college in Britain. An opportunity to spend two MONTHS in London sounded fantastic.
Our teacher told us that we would live in a student hostel. It was going to be MORE CONVENIENT than staying with a host family as the hostel was very close to the college.
When we arrived in London, the FIRST thing we had was a bus excursion round the British capital. Unfortunately, when we WERE PASSING Westminster Abbey, it started to rain hard.We had to go down to the lower level of our double-decker and we DIDN'T MANAGE to enjoy the wonderful sights.
Anyway, London is very impressive. People from all over the world live there. Some of THEM come as tourists, others choose this place to study or to work in. It is a dynamic multicultural city, though there ARE so many historical buildings in it.
Amazingly, many of the houses WERE BUILT centuries ago!
