Skype exchange!

Hi everybody!

On Wednesday, I finally Skype with the other members of my group! It has been a very funny and interesting experience. I've never used this tool before; I think it is a great way to communicate with people who are abroad because it is free! I mean, of course you must have the Internet connection...

Well, our peer is a Spanish girl, whose name is Rocio and she is in Dickinson for one year. At the beginning, we thought her name was Rachele, because we had this name written on the table; however, as soon as she started speaking we realized that she wasn't American. Her accent was typically Spanish! We introduced ourselves and then we started talking about immigration (as we were supposed to). As far as she wasn't American, she spoke about immigration from her point of view. So, we couldn't have general information about how is immigration in U.S.A.; she spoke about the closed reality of the college and she said something about her country.

Finally, for our final project we decided to make a comparison between the university life in Padua and in Dickinson's college. We thought it was the best choice because our peer is Spanish and she couldn't gave us opinions about topics such as death penalty or education in U.S.A..

See you!
