Sweden

I really loved the Sweden trip, we did a lot of amazing things, we visited some museums and zoo, we walked in the streets and bought souvenirs, so what did you prefer? It was different from  Ireland because we had a pen friend, can you describe your experience with them? What did you learn about the Swedish culture (words, lifestyle, clothes)?
NB (Fabian, Amaury, Clémence): Which country would you like to visit and why?

Play in a film

We all dreamed of playing in a film that we really enjoy. 

• If you had this opportunity, in which film would you have wanted to play? 
• What character would you like to play?

Easter

Last week  was Easter holidays, and I think that everybody celebrated it and looked for hidden eggs in the garden. This tradition exists in many countries but there are different stories: in France, flying bells leave eggs in the gardens while in Germany it's a rabbit, it's different everywhere but I think  children all over the world know that their parents put them in the gardens.
So my questions are the following:
-How do you celebrate Easter? Do you know any other traditions?
-Do you think that these kinds of celebration (like Christmas too) are a good thing for children? Aren't they just a lies told by  parents who send a lot just to make their children happy? Do you agree with them?

Graduate studies

Next year, some of us will go to university or to big schools. 

Have you noticed how tuition fees are quite expensive in some universities or schools?

Many students fear that they will not have the financial means to pay for higher education. 

• Do you think that university studies or some schools should be free?

Realize your dreams

During our lives, we all have dreams.

Some may seem more extravagant than others. However, achieving one of our dreams is always a great pleasure.

• What dream would you like to realize?
