Thanks, so it was a right traffic circuit after all.
I am not sure what is the point in making a touch-and-go or a low approach after coming from a tiring cross-country flight as a student, so I guess it was a probably a go-around due to a rejected landing.
I start to feel a little similarity with the SR20 accident at KHOU back in 2016, where the increasingly exhaused pilot stalled and spun on the upwind-to-crosswind turn, after 3 landing attempts.
