On the issue of baggage


Given that some of you may be doing well just to log on to this page, I will flag a discussion happening in the comments section of my last post regarding luggage:

Two question were raised on this issue -
the first of which was: During the homestay, will we be carrying our luggage to the school and then to our homestay house and back again the next day.
The second question was: Can I take a large handbag instead of a backpack?

Answers to Questions:

Q1) Yes, during our visit to the school you will need to take all your luggage with you. We will lock it in a room at the school, but yes - you need to take it home with you that night. I will talk to them about leaving your luggage locked at the school and you taking an 'overnight bag' i.e. your backpack but at this stage, it all goes home with you.

Q2) In terms of taking a handbag instead of a backpack - the answer is no! You must have a backpack to go on day trips and a handbag is not a substitute for this. you may bring a small handbag if you absolutely must, but I think it will end up annoying you.
