Railway museum and three normal workdays


Day 19

 Wednesday:

After work I walked home and didn't do anything interesting that day so it was an uneventful day altogether.

Railway museum:

In York I visited the railway museum, even though I'm not so interested in trains. Railway museum was founded in 1975 and the museum won the European Museum of the Year prize in 2001. It was great to see how trains have changed along the years. There are over hundred of trains and about two-hundred other railway vehicles. My favorite trains were the old ones, I didn't care so much about the new trains. Entry to the museum is free but donations are welcome. In addition to trains there are more to see, for example train engines and paintings. Railway museum is close to the train station and I highly recommend to visit it even if you don't like or care about trains.
Afrer railway museum I walked around the city and saw the minster again at night. I also bought few souveniers and something to myself. After walking it was time to go back to Leeds so I went to the train station. York was a great and beautiful city and I really recommend visiting it.



Day 20 and 21

Thursday and Friday:

Thursday I went for a run after work and did some cleaning at my room.
Friday was like Wednesday, I didn't do anything interesting except planning my weekend. Friday was also my last day at work so I got a certificate and said my goodbyes to my coworkers.

Last day with Graham and Food in York

Kuva
Day 18 Last day in Technology campus: Today was my last day in Technology campus, because Graham is taking three days off. For the next three days I will be with the estates in Park Lane campus. Today we went with the estates to landfill to drop a full van of garbage. It was my first time in the car that was driving on the left side of the road. It was a bit scary, but I trusted Phill who drove the car. Food in York:   After I visited the York minster I walked a bit around the city. I walked for about an hour and saw a crepe stand. I bought a crepe with nutella inside which you can see in the photo. I'm a chocolate lover so it was delicious. After the crepe I walked around the city visiting some shops and boutiques including a very narrow street with different Harry Potter shops. There was like ten different Harry Potter shops, for example shop with wands, shop with brooms and many others. After the "Harry Potter street" I went to the pub to get something to

New friends and ping pong

  Day 12 Firs work experience in pl campus: Today I was with Graham from 08:30 till 12:30. After lunch which was 12:30 - 13:30 I went to the pl campus and worked with estates. After work I went to the school gym to do workout, there were two school trainers who can help you with your workout. The gym and trainers are free for the school's students and staff. Ben was one of the trainers who showed me everything and told when I can use the gym and where I need to sign in everytime I use it, Ben also offered to coach me but I had a program so I politely declined. After workout I went to the grocery store to get Food for next week. In the grocery stores there are many offers like buy two of the same product and get it two quids cheaper. Day 13 Ping Pong: Today I was with Graham because he asked Paul if I could stay the whole day with him. In the technology campus was some kind of "game day". In the canteen was table tennis, playstation, board games and more. S

First touch with Leeds

Kuva
Day 3 Leeds: Today I went to the Park Lane Campus where we did welcome with Paul who is International Project Officer and four more students from Kotka. After the welcome we went to find a place to eat. Three students ordered tacos while me and another student ordered Vietnamese food. I ate soup with mushrooms, meat and some vegetables. After we ate we headed to the mall where we did some shopping and got tasty ice-teas. The ice-tea was with some bubbles which you could suck through a straw, pop it in your mouth and you could taste the liquid inside of it, which was sweet. I also saw a man raging in an apple store, throwing phones, laptops and watches off the table. Security got him and after a few minutes, the police came. Police took few photos of the scene and filed a police report. I thought to myself that it's gonna be a big bill that he's going to pay for. After shopping we just walked around the Leeds and got food for home. In the store I noticed that the tea
