Swap a farm in the north of Scotland. They are
swapping families and schools for a week.
Annabel (14)
Sarah (14)
Day 2
Everyone gets up at 5 am because there's a lot to do on
the farm. Sarah's mum is very nice. She brings me a cup
of tea in bed, but I just go back to sleep. Later, I go outside
to the farmyard to help Sarah's family. Today we are
milking the cows in the barn and feeding the chickens.
The animals are lovely, but I can't stand the smell.
Day 2
Everyone stays in bed late here. It's 8 am and
Annabel's mum is making breakfast! In the afternoon,
we're going shopping on Oxford Street and then
we're going to the cinema! I'm so excited!
Day 4
Sarah's mum takes me to school every morning. We drive
five miles to meet the school bus, which leaves at 7 am.
Sarah's school is very small, but everyone's so friendly.
Day 6
Learning about farming is interesting, but I'm happy I'm
going home tomorrow. The fresh air is nice but it's too
quiet here. I also feel isolated. In the city, the streets are
crowded but you have everything close at hand. I miss
the hustle and bustle of London but I don't want to leave
all my new friends.
Day 4
I travel to Annabel's school by tube. Her school is huge
with 1,500 students and her friends are very interesting
and helpful. I'm enjoying the lessons, but most of all i
love the facilities. The computer room and the
swimming pool are my favourites,
Day 6
Today, I'm feeling a bit tired. It's always noisy here and
you can hear the traffic all night. I think I'm getting a bit
homesick, too. I miss the beautiful landscapes and
the people from my hometown. I'm happy I'm going
home tomorrow but I'm sure I'll visit London and see
Annabel's lovely family again!​
