Although my trip was a bit too long and complicated (my route was the following: Budapest – Vienna – Lisbon – Porto) I arrived in safety to my apartment in Porto on 30 January. I stay in a lovely apartment in the centre of the city; I love to walk around in the beautiful streets of Porto, and to be part of the city’s amazing cultural life.
I went to Lousado on the 3rd of February for the first time, and I was welcomed in a very warm way in FORAVE. Teacher Teresa – my coordinator – showed me around in the school, and she introduced to me all the teachers and employees of FORAVE during a lovely reception (I also had the chance to taste “Hungarian cookies” there).
During the first two weeks of February I made a little presentation about Hungary and about myself to all the classes of FORAVE, therefore I could meet all the students of the school. After that I started the English lessons. I enjoy the lessons very much, and for me it is a great experience to teach in FORAVE. I find the atmosphere of the school very friendly and familiar, therefore I feel lucky to be a Comenius Assistant here. I was also happy to participate in the various activities of the FORAVE, such as the Valentine’s Day Tea Party, the Carnival, and the big field trip to Lisbon.
