My school is twinned with a French school, so the girls / boys in France are to live by Italian boys and attend my school for about three months. This year I have two of these girls in the classroom: Aute and Claire.

I admire them very much because they had the courage to change the country, break away from their families and friends and especially to radically change their daily lives.

They live in Agen, a small town between Bordeaux and Toulouse but now they are hosting in two different families: Aute in Bagnaria Arsa e Claire in Torviscosa.

Claire has blonde hair, blue eyes and is 16; Auto has brown hair, brown eyes and is 16 too.

I don't talk much with them, I have only pointed out the differences between their school and mine:they leave the school at the end of an hour if you want to skip the next one or two weeks have almost holiday every two / three months.

They are here to improve their language and they also have to study their Franch subjects because when they will return home they have to know the same things of their classmates. 

Their presence leads us also to speak English or learn some terms in French, so I think that is an advantage for all of us.
