Yes if, in a exchange programs such as the OBW ( Ontarion - Baden Württemberg) is there is of course always an official part. For me it was a Orientation the 3 days lan in Toronto was:
Monday, 08/24 - Wednesday, 08/26:
On Monday we drove off with general matters. So what we actually want from the university, which offers us the university and what we have to do ... not exactly spectacular, but still useful. That was really nice to again be among the Germans and all other OBW to meet people. Some I knew from the preparation weekend in Germany. My "personal goal" for the Orientation was a par to find volunteers to go with me on the Alpgonquin Parc to paddle. This was not really hard and we have the evening the same time, a par things organized . Namely, we need a car with camping equipment, canoes and a camping permit from the Ranger . Well not quite that simple ... The
Orientation was not only drivel, because on Tuesday we had a really nice "school trip". At first it went to a wonderful gallery and then in the north to Gorgian Bay for a boat ride! At the end there was again a really delicious dinner buffet :)
On Wednesday it was then already been back to Hamilton, along with the other Germans and the French with it. 
After the International Office had then besieged for a few hours and all our stuff had settled, I could finally move into my beautiful home. With me live again a German and a Frenchman. In addition, two Canadians are still living, a Algerian and one room is available. Since the house is still not quite finished, we also had at breakfast improvise something 
But for us it goes on Friday eh again on for a week in the Algonquin Parc and then the house would need far completed be ... All images of Orientation (just click on the link ...)
