P.S
This is very beautiful place with great nature. I feel myself as in my country because it looks like this one. Yesterday my friends and I saw a deer. It was near us. and we also saw a skunk. Skunks donot bother you, unless provoked. Stay far away , they spray a bad smell when they are scared. The staff is very nice and friendly. Our trainers Andy and Radmila are very nice, helpful and friendly too. Mr. Neil is very nice too so everyone is very great person. The people who are here always smile and shake hands.
Today was very busy but enjoyable day. We had workshop - Learning-centered. It was very interesting for me. I will use such kinds of activities for my lessons and trainings because to my mind my students will like this and all of them will be motivated. we also walked to Brattlerboro. Beautiful nature.
Tomorrow we have very interesting day too. Trainings and shopping
