February

 I was basically at home in the last two weeks. I travelled in turns to Tartu und Tallinn, holding presentations on different schools in English and Estonian together with past exchange students from Estonia and sometimes even with other current exchange students. I really enjoyed giving the presentations and I think it was a quite useful experience. I can definitely know better now how it feels like to be in the teacher position &how difficult and exhausting this can be. But mostly it was fun and I really liked talking about my exchange .
And on the weekend was already the Mid Year Seminar We talked about the first half of our exchange and what the second half is going to bring. We also had a language test,just for yourself, which was quite hard, but in the end it turned out quite well for me.
I had a bit time in Tallinn and Tartu and I finally took some pictures :)
YFU people ♥


Then Valentinsday came, which is here also called 'Friendsday', friends give each other chocolate bars for example, and because it was on a Sunday this year, we had a little celebration in school. There was a little surprise waiting for everyone in our lockers: a bonbon with a nice quote and a lotterie number (but I wasn't lucky :D)
Maize balls with caramel called like a part of the eye: Iris :)

And now the pictures of Tartu:)

Imagine Dragons concert & Language tour

I am sorry that I always write far too late about the events that happened, but here the next entry finally is.
So about the language tour. I have done only one presentation so far at my own school for a 7th class. I couldn't say that much because the presentation was in Estonian, but we were so  lucky with the class, the students were really interested in the topic and payed attention.
After the whole snowy and cold January the snow started to melt last week. I am kind of proud of myself, because I didn't fall one time although the roads were so slippery. Besides ice, huge water puddles covered the ground- some of them were really large like tiny lakes.
Before the snow melted I built with my host sister my first(very small) snow house!


Our snowman *--*

And on the next day it looked like this :(






On Friday I went to the Imagine Dragons concert! It was so great, I don't have words for it.
Dancing to the music, your heart beating in the rythm of the bass, singing along with thousand others, enjoying the music. I loved it so much and had such a wonderful time there.
 The singer of the band also talked about something, which really touched my heart, about how music unites people no matter where they come from as an exchange student I could obviosuly relate to that.
All in all it was an amazing weekend, I enjoy every visit to Tallinn so much, there are just so many activities you can do and it has such a beautiful old town.
I hope I find the time to write again soon !:)
