Ana Maria & Helena 29-30 July Canterbury


Ana Maria and me arrived in Canterbury yesterday. It's a lovely place to visit as you can feel its history everywhere you go. Canterbury is well known for its stunning Cathedral and Chaucer's tales. Canterbury belongs to the district of Kent in Southeast of England. Its Cathedral became a major destination of pilgrimage after the martyrdom of Thomas Becket. This pilgrimage was the frame for Chaucer's Canterbury tales. Yesterday the weather was typical English(cloudy and rainy) but today, fortunately we had sunshine. We've done plenty of things. Yesterday we did some sightseeing, had the traditional fish and chips and stayed at a very cosy hostel (We both highly recommend it: Kipps Backpackers). Today, we both moved in with our respective host families and we are very pleased with them. Both houses are quite near the city centre and the University. We also had a Stour River tour on a boat and discovered curiosities about this historic place. We went up to the top of the West Gate and tasted some delicious scones with a cup coffee.

















Tomorrow, we are starting the lessons and we'll let you know !
By the way, there are still some red telephone boxes and they even work!!!
