My name is Kateryna and I took part in an international youth exchange and went to France. It was a really cool experience that gave me a lot of positive impressions, new acquaintances and a love for the country itself. Since it was my first time in France, I really liked this country: flowers grow on trees everywhere, a pleasant and mild climate, interesting culture, and songs.

In addition, my stay was in Bordeaux, and I managed to taste different varieties of wine, which also impressed with its notes of dry and sweet taste.

Walks, nighttime conversations, laughter, carefreeness, joy, communication – these feelings accompanied me throughout my visit to France. There were many interesting activities at the camp, a trip to the beach, dancing under the night sky – these are things that will remain in my memory forever!

Also, very importantly, I really liked our camp staff, they were people who were ready to help at any time, cared, prepared delicious breakfasts and dinners for us, and you could just come up and chat. I’m happy to know these people.

A special thank you to your club for helping me pay for my trip from Ukraine to Bordeaux to participate in the youth exchange program!

Those who are thinking about going or not – go! That positive atmosphere will stay with you for life.
