Sunday 5.2

This was the first morning in Karstula with the host families. We spent the morning with our pairs. Some of us went to the frozen lake and we just basically did what we wanted. Then almost everyone went to the ice rink to watch ice hockey game, but italians weren’t very interested about that. They said that they prefer football more. After that we went to sightseeing tower Näkötorni and we grilled sausages and watched beautiful view over Karstula. Weather was nice and there was snow everywhere. Climbing to the tower was a little bit hard because the hill was so slippery and icy.
In the evening most of us went to the Nelli’s house and we had a movie night. We watched a movie called “I’m a legend” and we ate some snacks. When the movie ended we listened some very good Italian and Finnish music and watched music videos. Others were at Kaisla’s house and they played games like Alias and Uno.

Friday in Piispala


Friday was our last day together. We made a trip to Piispala youth centre. The weather was very good. First we got to know about the area, and then we seperated to two groups. One group went to see animals and the other group went to wall climb. There were very cute animals, for example two pigs, goats and a donkey. Wall climbing was hard but fun. Before we changed places we went to eat. 

When we arrived to school our principal gave the Italians certificates and Moomin mugs.  Then some of the Italians went to S-market to buy homecoming gifts and some went to sled hill.

SATURDAY 8.10.-16

Saturday was our last day in Warsaw. We didn't have any plans, so we did whatever we wanted to. Some of us went to the shopping center and the rest of us stayed at home. This was our last chance to be with our host family.

Because Saturday was our last day, we had to pack our things and get ready for the airport. We had to be at the airport at 18:00. Our flight left about 20:25 (polish time) and landed at 23:05 (finnish time).



Our Helsinki-Karstula journey had begun. At midnight we ate at Mcdonald's in Vantaa and then we were ready to go home.


We were at Karstula about 4-5 at morning. And finally we could go to our own bed and own home.
All of us were so tired and being back to Finland was a great feeling. We'll miss some people in Poland but it's so nice to be in Finland again.
