On Monday the 8th of May all of us – that is Anna, Katharina, Matilda and Theo (all from class 2B) and me - had to be at Graz Main Station at 10 o‘clock. After we had said goodbye to our parents, we entered the train and went to our seats. At 10:20 the train to Vienna left and our journey began. We took a train to Ostrava, a big city in the Czech Republic, where we arrived at 5 p.m. Then a small bus took us to our destination: Melc. My host family welcomed me at the bus stop and we went to their house. They showed me my room and after a little snack we did archery. I had never done it before but in my opinion it is a lot of fun and I even hit the target - at least some times. For dinner the mother of my partner student Dominik made “Wiener Schnitzel”. It was really good but a little bit different from those in Austria. After a good poker game we all went to bed and the first day of my trip was over.
