OXFORD & LONDON
28th JULY - 26th AUGUST 1996

My first holiday by myself and my first adventure abroad. I went 3 weeks in Oxford for the Summer Studies and after that 9 days in London in a youth hostel where I met my friends.

OXFORD
In these 3 weeks of "school" my accomodation was in a English family and my room-mate was Marek from Poland. During the morning I had the lessons and in the afternoon there were a lot of activities. We visited the Museum of Science, we had an excursion by boat on the river, we visited Stradford-upon-Avon, the castle of Windsor, the city of Bath and we also had one week-end in London. Then nights in the Student Club, approaches on the bus, tennis tournament, parties, enjoying at 100%.

LONDON
When the holiday for everybody else of the group was finished and they had to take the plane home, I stopped in London and as planned, I met Toni that joined me from Canterbury, Stefano from Sheffield, Elena, Adriano P. and Adriano M. from Italy. My accomodation was in the Holland House, a hostel in the middle of a beautiful botanic park near Kensington. We didn't miss any important place or monument: Covent Garden, the Tower of London, St.Paul Cathedral, the British Museum and the National Gallery, Carnaby Street and Oxford Street, Portobello and Camden Town.
