BACK TO TERRASSA

Dear all, We're back home in Terrassa. We had a really good time in Belgium and we want to say again that we are very grateful to the families for their care and hospitality and also to the teachers and directors of Materdei school who organized such a great week for us. I hope all the students will upload some more photos and comments to keep you informed about the exchange. See you soon, Anna Suana

BACK IN BELGIUM, OCTOBER 2013 !!

HI EVERYBODY. WE´RE BACK IN BELGIUM FOR THIS YEAR´S EXCHANGE. We got here last Friday at 10 a.m, which means that we left at 7 and we met at 4.30 in the morning! So, it was a long day!

I hope they will all get into the blog and explain you more things and upload some photos!! bye!!!

EXCHANGE BELGIUM-CATALONIA: Monday


Monday

Yesterday morning we left to visit Barcelona. We walked a lot and saw a lot of beautiful monuments and buildings. At 14 PM we could choose a place to eat, of course we chose a place in the sun. After we ate we could do some shopping. At 16 PM we went to Terrassa again. We went with the majority of the group to a terrace. I took a delicious croissant with chocolate and we laughed a lot! Once we were ready we went shopping until very late. We were very tired and went home to eat. The dinner was very tasty and afterwards we went straight to bed because we were so tired.

Missing it already....

Hi everyone,
I'm about to share my favourite moments of this little trip to Terrassa, read on!

First of all I'd like to tell you that I really loved my host family, I've never met people who had travelled that much and had stories about all the different countries they visited. Secondly, Angel, Aleix's dad, is an amazing cook, which meant we ate heavenly food every single day. Clearly, the Catalan food was one of the highlights of this trip. Thirdly, Aleix's mother is an English teacher, which made it easy to talk to her, she's a really nice person and I'm sure I'll miss her. Last but not least, Aleix, I guess we we're very lucky with having you, you're such a nice guy, it was really fun staying with you and thank you for everything.

Here comes the part where I talk about the beauty of Barcelona and Terrassa. Obviously we visited the breathtaking works of Gaudi. Not only did they leave me speechless, they also made me feel so small and like I haven't achieved anything in my life (which I haven't but you get what I'm trying to say, I hope).

Here's to the weather in Terrassa: 20 DEGREES, A LOT OF SUN,... Oh, dear students who went to London: MY LEGS ARE TANNED hihi, now I'm going to leave you and look back with a smile and be a little bitter because of the shitty weather here in Belgium.

Goodbye,
Flo xxxxxxxxx

Sunday morning Chiara went by car to Montserat. First she visited the church and saw little children sing very well Second Chiara made her way to a shop full of typical Spanisch food. At the same time I (Joëlle) went with Kimberly and our exchange students, to the aquarium in Barcelona. There were a lot of fishs, most of them where very ugly but it was very funny. After that we admired a beautiful view of Barcelona from the top of a shopping center. We also walked to the sea, wich was very blue in contrast to the sea in Belgium.
