Hey guys.... am a newbie on this board! lol. am off out on July 5th and i kinda have a couple of questions... hope someone can answer me! Here goes... Is anyone going out on july 5th? Do we share an apartment with people from a diff country or do they actively put us with people from our own country? prefer to be with people from other countries! lol. Also... i heard a mention somewhere about each country having a welcome ritual of some kind? Any ideas wot thats all about?! Thanks guys!!! Bry
i think you questions could be answered by other threads...take a look...theres on on housing, one on throw ins!!! sheena
Hi Bry ! I'm not coming on July 5th but I just wanted to mention that it will be my birthday (21) ! lol And to answer one of your questions, u'll be sharing an apartment with people from other countries than yours... See you out there ! Emy
Well if i get out there in time we'll have to go out or something for your birthday!! I gotta get used to not being able to drink! lol Bry
Aloha!!! Very cool that you're coming soon! So the answers for your questions......... Yes. you live with people from other countries. It's recently happened (with Canada, not sure about other places) that people have been put in apartments with people from the same country. I know when I got here I had an Italian, a French guy and a Norwegian. As for the second question, most countries have throw-ins and each country does it their own way. Its all good fun though If you have any more questions feel free to ask Nio
Hey Bry, Welcome to the accepted boards!! I think they try to put people from different countries together so everyone will mix, as for what happens when you get there (throw in's) I don't think anyone really knows what really happens unless you have been through one. I don't think its too much to worry about, just meeting loads of new people and having a laugh. Helen x
Nio's answered the bulk, i think bry you're one of the only ones out in july from the UK, spesh as your original date u couldn't make was 21st june same as 21 of us from the uk, so you may have 2 make ur grand entrance on ur own congrats again hun, will c u out there xxx
Thanks guys!!! Am glad am sharing with other nationalities, i really wanna learn German while am there (German family hehe) and brush up my spanish with the mexicans!! lol. See you all soon! Bry
