A TEENAGER from Worcester's twin town in France has spent two weeks working at a city restaurant.

Antoine Chardon's visit was enabled through the twinning of Worcester and Le Vesinet.

Robert Loveless, of Worcester Twinning Association, said: "This is what twinning is all about.

"It's great that young people get the chance to come and spend time in Worcester, and vice versa."

Antoine, 17, came to Worcester to work at Puccini's restaurant in Friar Street for two weeks and stayed with a local family.

He was hoping to practice his English and learn about British culture.

"I have really enjoyed my time in Worcester," he said.

"I would very much like to come again and I'm glad I got the opportunity to come."
