5:45 the alarm clock rings ⏰, it's finally time 😻. After getting dressed, we go downstairs where many people join us to come along.

It's still dark outside but pleasantly warm.

Here's an overview of the entire campus:

The Campus Center is where the reception is, the dining room, and where you can also buy all kinds of sweets, cakes, coffees, or other hot meals.

The residence halls are where the student rooms are located.

My room has a beautiful view of part of the courts.

There are delicious and fresh things, the Americans are even so crazy that there is separate egg white and yolk scrambled eggs 🙄

The tennis program starts at 7, you have to leave the breakfast building and then a golf caddy with a trailer takes you to the courts.

At the court, the groups were assigned after playing a forehand and a backhand over and over again. The groups were constantly changing. I never thought there would be so many people, from small to large, who were divided among what felt like thousands of trainers.

After finding my group - with Hisan, my trainer - I received my schedule:

According to the schedule, there was time for breakfast again, so I helped myself at the fruit bar.

Later, we went to the physical conditioning, where we did sprints, squats, lunges, and all kinds of other exercises. That was a pretty cool change from the tennis program at home.

The topic on the tennis court was the forehand. I was able to learn really good technique, as the trainers really know their stuff and can give great tips.

Our group, consisting of about 20 people, was divided on the courts again. There were about 7 trainers, so about 3 people were trained by each trainer. The courts here are so good!
