'The week in Norway was great fun. The activities were organized well so we had enough free time and time for work. My family was very hospitable. I felt so good there in this family atmosphere. The places which we visited I'll remember for a long time, the view of Bergen at night is amazing. This trip was great practice of my English skills. I hope that new relationships will last forever and we will have an opportunity to meet again offline.'

'In my opinion the trip to Norway was a good lesson for all of us. We learned how to use safe internet, we had a lot of exercises to improve our knowledge, but we also saw a different culture. In Norway there is better technology, so it was pleasure to see it. Now we know how people live there. For me the organization was very good. I would like to thank my host Lars Ulvar and his whole family for being so kind to me and for making me feel at home. If someone asks me: Do you want go to Norway once again? I will definitely answer… YES.'

Norway seems to be a cold country but people here are really hospitable and kind. I believe their culture is a bit different from ours. Norwegian and Swedish people speak English very well but sometimes even if I sat at the same table they were speaking Norwegian (or maybe Swedish, because both languages are similar). At times I was confused about that. Teenagers were there very independent. The workshops were very nice. All the activities were well organized and educational. It was a wonderful opportunity for us to learn cooperation. Before my journey I knew about Norway only that there were fiords and reindeer there. So I saw fiords, unfortunately there were no reindeers now I’m sure that in this country there are also amazing landscapes, clear water, beautiful buildings and more. The time in Norway was hard-working but that was a great fun. I got to know a lot of fantastic people from abroad. Today I can compare which nations are more and which are less similar to the Polish. This was the best English lesson in my life. I see how hard it is to speak in English (definitely writing is easier). I guess that my skills have improved. I hope, I’ll return to Norway one day, not only because I want to see reindeer.

The visit in Norway was amazing, in my opinion. Everything was organized well, we had activities till the end of the days. Every evening I was tired but I wanted to know everything about the culture of Norway so I spent a lot of time there talking with my host family. I also think that we could have had more time to make our presentations to make them be as good as they should be. Anyway, I’m glad that I had this opportunity to go to Norway and see a lot of beautiful places there.
