Reims, 16th April 2016. Cheerfully Jacqueline, pupil of Pascal-Gymnasium (Grammar School) in Münster, reports on her exchange from Reims, a town with about 200,000 inhabitants in the north-east of Paris. I have been here since the middle of March and have already experienced a lot. As there are still Easter holidays in Reims, my host family and I went to Paris for a few days. There we had a look at many exciting places like the Louvre, the Quartier Latin – a kind of students’ quarter – and the famous Versailles Palace, by which I am still overwhelmed (cf. picture). Of course I must go to school here, too. Everyday life at school is not so much different from the one I am used to. Nevertheless, I have noticed a few differences. The days start later – but consequently end later, and there is school here every Saturday morning, which is something completely new to me. Finally I would like to explicitly thank you for the support without which I would not have been able to make many of the experiences in the recent weeks. I can only recommend such a stay abroad.
