Tuesday 24.10.: The first day of school and the Castle of Santa Severa


We went ​ ​to school in the morning. The Italian teachers divided us into four groups and the Italian students were our group leaders. Then we started our business projects. We created our own business together and decided what and how we are going to sell. Occasionally it was rather challenging for us to understand the local accent and what our group leader wanted to say. We also noticed that working in an international group is very different than working together with other Finnish students. Despite the little language barrier we got started, and we are excited to see what will happen tomorrow.


After the​ ​school day ​ ​we ​ ​went ​ ​by ​ ​bus ​ ​to ​ ​the ​ ​Saint ​ ​Severa’s ​ ​castle (Castello di Santa Severa). ​ ​A ​ ​great ​ ​view ​ ​from ​ ​the ​ ​bus!





Above you can see ​ ​some ​ ​pictures which we took​ ​at ​ ​the ​ ​castle. ​ ​The castle​ ​was ​ ​very ​ ​interesting ​​and the Italian students had prepared informative presentations related to​ ​its ​ ​history.

In ​ ​the ​ ​evening ​ ​we ​ ​ate ​ ​at the​ ​hotel’s ​ ​restaurant.



Rauli ​ ​had ​ ​a ​ ​pizza ​ ​with ​ ​french ​ ​fries!


Some of us
had a lot of fun with those Italian breadsticks before the dinner :D
