Today was the official "day off" for all the summer school participants, so I spent my time catching up on sleep, shopping and eating. I think it's fair to say that this is a typical day in the life of Gabrielle. But it has given me time to reflect, something we should all do once in a while.
As a fully-fledged 19 year old, it has come to my attention that my time in Latvia is slowly coming to an end with just
13 days left! I have never known time to fly by so quickly, so I'll have to make the most of the time I have left here.
The
last week of summer school is also now upon us. In such a short time, we have already seen new international friendships coming alive, brains and creativity racked by lectures, oneness with nature on field trips and much more.
This week, me and the other intern will have to knuckle down and film any necessary shots and interviews for the longer film to be ready for Friday's closing ceremony. I'm sure some fun will be scheduled into our timetable! Who said you can't mix business and pleasure, eh?

I still haven't found out what this additional "surprise" is yet but as soon as I do, you'll know about it!
