Sissel and Eriks report 2: Things we’ve done after school



Hello again!


It’s our seventh week here. The exchange is almost done now. In this report we are telling you what we have done here after school. The activities are quite different in here than in Finland.






In the end of October both of us celebrated Halloween. We started with trick or treating and ended with a party. Sissel also colored her hair pink in celebration (don’t worry mum, it’s not pink anymore). Erik had make-up on which resembled a zombie.





In these pictures you can see Sissel and Lila ready for trick or treating, Justine dressed up as David Bowie and also a picture from a party.

After Halloween, in the beginning of November, the local TV came to interview us. The interview was shown on the seven o’ clock news in the afternoon. Both of us enjoyed it, some more than others ;). Here is a link for the interview: https://www.linfo.re/la-reunion/societe/developpement-durable-echanges-entre-etudiants-erasmus-et-lyceens?jwsource=cl

In November we have discovered new places and been exploring the island. We have seen a lot of waterfalls, beautiful sunsets and so much more.




















We have also started to practicing for Vanhojen tanssit, the olders’ dance. Here you can see Erik trying to teach Sissel.



Last Sunday both of us tried a thing called parapente. You start by jumping of a 800m cliff and then you just fly around.







Yesterday, we only had one hour of school, so we decided to make a little trip to a town called Saint-Leu. We had a struggle with the bus so we hitch-hiked our way. A lovely couple were nice enough to drive us.



When we arrived to Saint-Leu we went to see turtles to Kelonia. It’s a place where they rescue turtles that would not survive out in the wild. They take care of them until they’re ready to survive on their own.








After the turtles we decided to go to the beach and swim.

In the afternoon we returned home and spent the evening at Sissel’s host family’s place. We tasted some local softdrinks.
