Today we arrived at the Bremenhaven Train Station. The whole town is cute and cozy whch makes it wonderful. We did a cooking challenge. 4 teams competed, every team had to prepare 3 meals. It was a great experience and fun time. Of course we all tasted and rated them. Then we spent some time with our host families and got to know each otherâs culture. Overall we had a great day in Bremenhaven with our German exchange partners!

On Thursday we visited a beautiful city which is full of urban storys – Bremen. At the beginning we went to many must-see spots like the town musicians of Bremen or St. Petri Cathedral, which we went into. Also at every spot two of students from Bremenhaven were telling us about those places. Next milestone on out trip was visiting museum in which story of town was presented by people who reenactlife from the past. We ended our tour at the town hall where we could hear more about its history and work nowadays. After 6pm, we returned by train to Bremerhaven and couldnât wait for the next day đ

Today we visited Helgoland. We had a guided tour through the most beautiful places on the Island. After that we had free time to take some photos and walk through the main places there. The trip was truly amazing, because we could see how the lives of the people living there looks like. Also the view of the place was breathtaking as well as the unique animals living there. We travelled both ways by the boat, so it was also really entartaining, as we could make the most of the nice weather.

Sunday was a free day for the host families, and I spent it in Bremerhaven. In the morning, we visited Klimahaus Bremerhaven, which I enjoyed very much. The exhibition was engaging, and I found it really interesting how well it presented different climate zones around the world, especially their temperatures. They have also opened a new âExtreme Weatherâ zone, whose moving floor and real-time effects made this experience unforgettable.
âLater, we went to a wake park, where I spent about two hours learning how to ride. Despite the harsh weather, it was a great experience â I had a lot of fun and managed to improve quite a bit. However, it was also physically demanding, and my arms were extremely tired by the end.
âIn the evening, I went with some of the exchange pairs to a local bowling alley. The atmosphere was very friendly, and it helped us bond as a group. We laughed a lot and had a really good time together.
âOverall, I enjoyed the whole day very much. I came back home tired, but happy and satisfied.

In the morning we came to the school to attend our exchange partners‘ german class, in which we discussed what atmosphere do colours prevalent in poems create. The colors we were talking about were the still and calm blue and the emotional red. The students also recited the poems.
After the class had ended, we headed to a room, where we worked on our group projecs, which were posters showing many similarities and differences between Poland and Germany in various aspects of life. Then we proceeded to hang the posters in a room, where the European Language Cafe was about to take place.
The European Language Cafe was an event in the school, where you were given an opportunity to meet people, students or teachers, that spoke different european languages. You could find out more about the languages from their respective languages and try some food from their cultures. Everyone was really nice and we had a wonderful time. Needles to say, in our opinion the event was a huge succes. If we were to be given an opportunity to attend a similar event in the future, we would definitely say yes!
