The first days of my gap year Part 2

 The day after I arrived served as a rest day, I recovered from the flight and settled into the Huas so I was reasonably comfortable so we jumped straight to the first day of school and wow was I surprised when I first saw the school saw. Of course I knew a few pictures, but it surpassed anything I had seen before, a huge campus, two school buildings, but very Waldorf-like. This means that there is a lot of open space, round objects and enough space for nature. The school has a kindergarten, an elementary school, a house for grades 5-12, huge sports fields for basketball, football and other sports. But the really fascinating thing is the school's own farm on the school grounds. Pictures can be viewed online as I was unable to take pictures due to the strict and absolute ban on cell phones on the cambus, but I will certainly submit a few more pictures.

All the people were very nice to me and had this Indian flair, which was very different from what you are used to in Germany, open-minded and even the children from the elementary school that I attended on the first day approached me, even if it was only at first are slow steps. On the very first day, the 11th graders invited me to a movie night and I felt accepted right away. A little update on yesterday in the morning I went to kindergarten, the children were between 4 and 6 years old and at first it was really a task to get them used to me and to build trust, but everything went really well. I played superman with them and built towers, one of the kids even told his mother I was his new best friend and I was really proud of it. After that I was invited to a movie night by the 11th class I played Indian games together with them and was really good at it and the kids 15-16 years old were very surprised and soon I was part of their group after which they watched a movie with popcorn and Pasta cooked. I had many conversations there and made new friends. At around 10 p.m. I drove home with them and we sang songs together. My highlight was when they told me that I was much cooler than the two volunteers in front of me and that they like me and if I don't have any plans for the weekend they would like to do something with me.
