Firstly I'm going to said that living in other country is difficult but when the ime passes we get used to it. And another point is that we go to a place more or less different (depending of the country) to the one we are from.

Living abroad is a positive experience because you can learn a new language, travelling opens your mind, it make us more independent, about other countries and your own country can learn a language, differents manners, arts, monuments...

However it isn't all positives things, as we come from another country we adapt normally it is hard and sometimes we can feel alone, and miss our own country.

In my opinion, travelling to other country can give us knowledge that maybe we don't adquire if we are only in our country. Personally, I want to go to study to other country with a Erasmus, and then when I will have  my family I want to travel a lot with them.

The most memorable journey I've ever made was when I went to Rome. My high school prepared this trip. The journey began on June 14th to 19th. I travelled with all friends of my class.

When we arrived in Rome after many hours by plane and bus, we went to the camping and the firts thing that we did was took a dip in the pool. Then, we prepared our backpacks and we went to visit the center of Rome. Over night we went to a disco and there we met a lot of people of different countries, and so every day.

Finally, the day 19th arrived and wa had to go back home. Eerybody was sad, very sad, because we were having a very good time. Everybody said goodbye to the people they had known, and we went to the airport. When I got home, I distributed the gifts that i had bought to my family. I will always remember this trip, it was fantastic!

So Pip, gave him a file and food the next day, and Pip told to the stranger that he was afraid about his friend who ate children, but the stranger told him that how Pip did that he ordered him, he would kill his friend, and Pip returned home.
