HOME SWEET HOME
Lars's Home in Norway
Lars lives with his parents and his little sister in a wooden cottage near a fjord, about twenty minutes from Bergen. The cottage has two floors. Downstairs, there is a kitchen, a small bathroom and a sitting room. Upstairs, there are three bedrooms and a tiny study. Lars's favourite room is the sitting room because it has a huge window with a wonderful view of the fjord. In this room, there is a fireplace, a comfortable sofa and two old armchairs. On cold winter evenings, the whole family sits by the fire and reads books together. Lars also helps his mother prepare the table for dinner every evening.

My Exchange Diary: A Week in Ankara
by Lars, 16, Norway
Back home in Bergen, I go to an upper secondary school near my house. Our lessons usually start at half past eight, and we rarely have exams in the first weeks of the term. That's why I don't often feel stressed at school.
This week, everything is different! I am staying with the Yılmaz family, and I am attending an upper secondary school in Ankara as an exchange student. Most lessons are in Turkish, so I sometimes feel anxious because I don't understand everything. Luckily, my host brother, Emir, is helping me a lot. He explains the difficult parts in English and never laughs at my mistakes.
The school has great facilities, such as a big courtyard, a food technology room and two basketball courts. After lessons, students take part in extracurricular activities. At home, I play chess with my grandfather every weekend, so I am joining the chess club here this week.
Right now, the whole school is preparing for Republic Day on 29 October. The literature club is rehearsing poems, and the music club is practising folk songs. Emir is a perfectionist, so he is practising his speech again and again. Every year at the Republic Day ceremony, students and teachers sing the National Anthem together, and then the celebration programme starts.
I think I am learning more than a language here. I am learning how a nation remembers its history with pride and joy.

Meet Defne! She is 15, and she studies at a boarding school in Erzurum. Her family lives in a small village far from the city, so she stays at school from Monday to Friday and goes home at weekends.
Defne's day starts at seven o'clock. After breakfast in the canteen, she goes to her lessons. On Tuesdays, she does laboratory work in chemistry, and her teacher often gives a short quiz at the end of the lesson. During breaks, the teachers have tea and talk about their lessons in the staffroom.
After lessons, students take part in extracurricular activities such as volleyball, chess and photography. Defne is in the school volleyball team, so she changes her clothes in the locker room before training every afternoon.
Defne wants to graduate with high marks and study engineering at university. She sometimes feels anxious before her exams, but good time management helps her a lot. She plans her week every Sunday evening and never leaves her homework until the last minute.
