Bonjour tout le monde

We only leave this Saturday and I am very excited to depart on this once in a lifetime journey. The path so far has been enjoyable and thought-provoking. We have been able to meet so many amazing people, including our French counterparts, and I can’t wait to see them again. It is going be an adventure we’ll all, never forgot

Après un début assez tôt pour un samedi matin, on a réussi d’attraper notre avion en provenance d’Auckland pour se rejoindre à Wellington pour un séance d’orientation avec les autres jeunes ambassadeurs et leurs professeurs. On a commencé la journée avec des introductions. Les autres ambassadeurs sont vraiment sympas et j’ai hâte de faire encore votre connaissance!
