Sunday (Last Day)
Sunday we had to be very early at the airport, it was the last time we were
with them all. We said goodbye to each other
most of the crying. It was a shame because it really was a fantastic week that I'm
never forget. Finally, we have all what lovingly written on each shirt. After
we said good bye to every one names we checked in. Wipe our own country.
I'm Dora Donia pupil SC-Delfland. I'm 15 yrs.
I went with my teachers to Tahiti because our school
is participating in a project Erasmus. My journey began at home with my parents
to Amsterdam where I was waiting for mr.Tas, mr Diggele and mr. Beets and other
students (Bobby 15 years and Soraya 16years) because they arrived by train from
Delft to Schiphol it only took 5 minutes and then they were there, I said goodbye
to my parents and my cousin after we have already our passports data check.
and we have some dinner together at Schiphol Then we
went running toward our plane to our first flight from the Netherlands to
Paris, 1hr 15 min flight. Then we grabbed our next flight to Los Angeles, I
really thought oh wow Los Angeles, I was very nervous it was flying very long
but really big airplane with TV’s not get bored and beautiful view it was
really long flights, but they were very nice and we were given blankets and
pillows to sleep. After having flown 12uurtjes we were tired of it and we were
finally landed at Los Angeles International Airport very tight security and
very large. Then we had the custom shoes jacket jewelry all issue and then we
were allowed to walk for an hour at the airport waiting for our last flight to
Tahiti Our final destination. And then just fly 8hrs 35min but not so bad hey
all a total of 21 hours just flew one day.
Finally in Tahiti arrived warm quickly change clothes
packed our bags in our summer clothes and there they were all our host families
they have us welcome nice with garlands itself I made took leave of me teachers
and Soraya and Bobby wanted a lot of fun with their new family them also I me
could handle fast with the family because I had with them English to
communicate but the island also they speak also French and I talk myself French

mountain you have wonderful views of the city and the sea really wow if I just

Hello,
My name is Soraya Mastenbroek and i’m 16 jears old.
I’m following an aducetion Sc Delfland.
Our school took part in an exchange project that’s called : It’s my life
it’s my choice.
To get her with Bobby and Dorra we were choisen to go to Tahiti in November
21 in the year 2015.
Afther on flight of 29 hour’s we had landed on Tahiti.
We also had a very warm welcome.
I didn’t really know what to expect of Tahiti but it was more beautiful then
I could have imagined.
We had a lot to do for example we went swimming and we played games.
We also went for an hike to the volcano and we really enjoyed the view on
top of the volcano.
A few day’s after the hike we went snorkelling on the other island named:
Moorea.
We arrived whit a giant boat and on the way there i’ve seen Dolphins.
Also when we were snorkeling I had seen shark’s, sting-ray’s and a lot of
fish.
On school day’s we had a llot of fun activities, for example we had to weave
bamboe basket’s.
I’ve learned a lot about Tahiti and their way’s of live, their culture and origen.
For me it was very special i’t s someting I wont forget eny time soon.
If I ever get the chance to go there again I would take it whit both hand’s.
This was the most fun experience of my life and I will never forget Tahiti
and all the friends i’ve made over there.
