Diary about

Polish – Cypriot students’ exchange

2013/2014 part 1 - Cyprus

„Dear diary ...” It starts as usual entry in a diary... but this presentation is only a small part

of what happened during the exchange in Cyprus. It‘s a description of the events, but the real memories are permeated with too many emotions to be

easily described here... There are no words to define some of these events ...

DAY 1. 27th of

Today we are going to fly to Cyprus! I can’t wait to see

this island, feel its warm and beautiful smell of dry grass! Of course I can’t wait to meet our partners, too! I

hope that they will be amazing!

Later…

hotel where we are going to spend the night. Our fly was

quite nice. I’m a little bit tired, but it’s OK. It

is very warm here. Mmmmm…

Today we are going to go sightseeing Paphos, but before breakfast we can go swimming! Water in hotel’s swimming pool was a bit cold at first, but later

it was PERFECT! We ate delicious breakfast and met our partners. I think that they are very sociable and friendly. They are going to go sightseeing Paphos

with us. It will be fine.

Later…

Paphos is amazing. My friends and their

partners are going to come back to Nicosia, but I’m going to stay

in Paphos with my partner and his

family… I’m a little bit nervous… I can’t wait

to meet them!

Later…

I’m sitting in my room in a beautiful hotel near the seaside. I’m full, because I ate a huge meal! I saw a fishing

port, a lot of beautiful restaurants, drank delicious and fresh

orange juice and knew a bit better my partner

and his family. They are great!
