Exchange letters

Here are the letters of the Dutch partners to the Basque! Thanks for the good behaviour, comprehension and love and care during all this week!

Hi Aiora

Thank you for the nice stay in your house. I really liked your parents they were really nice just like your brother. The town was really pretty I really liked the football field, when we met up with the group. The dance that you did was nice,  you where even trying to teach it to us but we failed very badly. 

Hope you had a nice time just like I had.

Hi, Ibai!

I think Gernika is a nice place to relax.

We did a lot of exciting activities, so I´m really tired.

The town has a lot of activities and some nice buildings.

Your family was really nice to me.

I hope I will see you again 

Bye!

Hi Sebas,

I had a wonderful time in your town and at your house. Thank you for all your hospitality. It was really fun hanging out with you and your friends and family. I liked the town and the food. I really enjoyed hanging out with everybody. You have a wonderful family. Thanks for everything. I really enjoyed hanging out at the soccer field, but it was a pitty that you weren´t there.

Hello Giuliana,

Thank you for everything that you have done for me, you are a really nice person, you were very kind to me, so thank you for everything.

I had a fun time staying here, it is very beautiful here, I loved the mountains , they were nice, I had a good time staying here.

it is a shame that the first day did not go well, I wish it could have gone differently, I would have liked if our groups spoke more with each other and that we spoke more with each other, because it did not feel like it was an excursion.

I really enjoyed staying here and thank you for everything that you have done for me.

I was glad to have you as my exchange partner. Eskerrik asko.

Sincerely, John.

Hi Kiara!

i loved being here. it felt like i was with my grandparents again!

I loved staying out until late even though im really tired while writing this to you.

i didnt like that we had to be up so early though, but we had to go to school.

i enjoyed seeing the village, i like how everything is so close to eachother. i would love to visit Gernika again, it is so nice and calm here! there is so much difference in our culture and way of living, but i love it. its so relaxed to just finish school and go outside, in The Netherlands this isnt quite possible, since its so cold and its even colder later in the evening.

i liked having my own room aswell. 

i would love to see you and Gernika again,

Laura.

Hello Aitor,

I appreciate your hospitality for me, and how kind your were to me. And all the patience you hjad with me.

I really liked your two little doggies, and your family.

Your friend Oneij (Konijn) was less passive to me, but it was an joke.

Your friend Voldemort (Oxford teacher) sucks at speaking english, but was much more nicer to me then Oneij.

I really liked the places were you brought me to, I loved the view of them.

I only find it sad that we didn´t walked up an mountain, but I dont mind.

In the beginning I found it hard to speak a little bit open because, I was in an different country with different people and I needed to get used to it.

But after the second day everything got much better we communicated better and I could understand your English a little better day after day.

Maybe i will come back to Spain one day to visit other places, E.G; Barcelona. Or other countries like Ireland or America, maybe we meet each other again who knows.

I really njoyed it here, and i hope you liked having me as your exchange in Basque-Country.

Kind Regards

Kevin

P.S.

I wish your mom good luck with her english tell Voldemort that he needs to improve his English speaking if he is as good as you say. And tell Oneij that i don´t like him.

Dear Ihara,

I really enjoyed the time in the Basque country and all the trips we made to the cities around Gernika. I learned all kinds of things of the Basque country for example how to make a basque omelet and different kinds of words in basque and in spanish. I hope that when I'm older, I can go to the basque country and meet you and your classmates again. 

Kind regards,

Ray Niersman

Dear Iharaa,



I had a great week, it was better then i expected, i learned a lot of things in this week, like:

• ​​the history of gernika 
  
• ​the painting of picasso 
  
• the culture itself  ​                                          

I also really liked your family, they where really nice to me and Ray.

you where a great exchange partner, you did everything to make us comfortable.

What i liked the most was going to Donostia, because it was a beautiful city with a lot of shops and of course the beautiful beach.

I find it really stupid that our class wont ever meet again your class.

so if i would never see you again i want to say that i had a great time here and i really appreciate everything what you did for us.

P.S thank your parents for everything they did for me, i really feeled home.

With kind regards Nick Deelen.

Hi,

I had a really good time staying in Gernika (at your house).

You and your family were all really nice and I enjoyed all the trips we made.

I think I liked Bilbao or Bermeo most. I loved the colourful houses in Bermeo, it´s really pretty!

We didn´t talk as much as I thought we´d do, but I guess everyone felt like this (maybe you too?).

Thank you for everything!

Xx Lieve

Hi Valentina,

I had a lot of fun this week. Your house is really nice and your mom, little sister and dog were really kind. I was home sick sometimes but that went a way quickly. You can tell your mom that I really liked the food it was delicous.

I do not have anything to say anymore so, thank you very much I had a great time.

To Paula, from Erik

Hello, we did not talk as much as I thought we were going to.

but none the less I had a very good stay at your house.

I also hope to come visit gernika some time in the future.

Also if I seemed uninteristed or to serious, then thats my fault because thats the sort of peron I am.

I hope you had a little bit of a good time with me, sorry if you did not.

Goodbye.
