2. When vi arrived to the airport, all the Catalonian students shouted and
waved with flags. We became surprised and happy with the welcoming.
Then we went to the other terminal to wait for the Lithanian students.
We waited there for half an hour and started to learn each others names.
Then the Lituanian students arrived and we shouted and waved with
flags. /Frida

3. Meeting the Lithuanian and Catalonian students
I think that the funniest part of the whole trip and project was to meet the other students. In the
beginning it’s was a little awkward, because we didn’t know each other. But very soon we realize
that they were very nice and friendly. We all became friends immediately. It was interesting to
see how they lived and what they did in there spare time. They showed us different places and
things that they use to do. We told each other stories about different things that we’ve been
through, and funny thing that we have done. After only 4 days, it felt like we have known each
other for maybe a year. It’s very fun to have some friends that lives in an other country.

4. At first we was just sitting down listening to
the guide. She told us about the
architects, about the building and how they
could afford too build the church.
After that we went into the church and she
talked about the colors and about the
different types of stones in the building after
that we went down too some type of
museum where they had pictures and models
of the building. It was a bit long but some
things was really interesting.

5. Us visiting students only visited one lesson, and I was at the IT lesson. I
couldn't really take part in the lesson, because they didn't have enough
computers. But I got the impression that the catalans have come much farther
than us swedes in IT education. In Sweden we have very little IT lessons, but
the Catalans seemed to know exactly what to do. I felt a bit stupid... /Linnea

6. Guided tour in Vic
The guided tour in Vic was very interesting, we had a very good guide that explained
everything and took care of us. Me myself thought that Vic was a beautiful town, it
looked nothing like Sweden. And every time we were going to cross a road, every car
stopped, every car! I know it’s a law in Sweden and everything but not even the police
stops when you are crossing the street in Sweden. And I’m a big fan of their food, it
was delicious. I thought I’d have a problem when we ate, because they ate so late! But
It was so warm there so it was okey to eat late.
To summarize everything, I had a great time.

7. The Exposition – the European commissionaire
On Wednesday we walked to a place in Vic, where we met a man. He told us about the
work of the European Union, to make a better environment. We listened to a lecture with a
PowerPoint. We learned something about Catalonia’s environment and what they did to
make it better. Why the dust clouds weren’t over Barcelona, and that the clouds blow to the
north part of Catalonia.

8. Living in host families.
The host family was great people. They gave
me great food. We went for a walk in five
minutes and then we stopped in the park for
about three hours. They were happy and kind.
We went out with the dog after we eat and we
stayed out to one in the morning at one time.

9. The party
The party we had Wednesday evening was fun! It was a good way to get to know
everybody. We ate a lot of good food and snacks. And the students that performed
were very brave and good! I especially liked Nuria.

10. Boat trip
One day we went on
a boat trip. We took
the bus and after a
very long time we
arrived. The sun was
shining and the
weather was really
good!
The boat was big
and had two floors.
Under the boat there
was like a glass
room. It was
beautiful because
you could see fish
and mussels and
they were very close
to you. I think it was
so much fun and I
really enjoyed it.
/Ellen

11. Callella del Palafrugell
On Thursday we were on the beach. It was so beautiful in the little village where the beach
was. It was very cold in the water but everyone took a dip in the ocean anyway.
We all sat in a ring and ate lunch together. We talked about everything and were just chilling.
It was so warm so after a while we went to the shop and bought ice-cream. A very nice day!

12. BARCELONA
When we were in Barcelona, we
went on a guided tour. The guide
showed us an old cathedral and
some other old buildings. When we
were going in to the cathedral, a
guard stopped us. He said that we
had too little clothes. Because you
had to have long arms on your
jumper and long trousers. And we
had shorts. So we did what we
could and my friend tied a cardigan
around her legs, and we went in.
After all the old buildings, we went
to La Rambla. La Rambla is a wide
boulevard, it’s twelvehundred
meters long. There you can by
flowers, bracelets and get a
selfportrait. If you were
unlucky, you could get your money
stolen.
/Sanna

13. Cosmocaxia
One day we went to
Cosmocaxia. It was a nice
idea to go the museum
and the exhibition was
great. We got a lot of free
time to explore the
different parts of the very
big museum. There were
a lot of different things to
experiment and play with.
Maybe it would have been
better if we got some
more time to get to know
the different
floors, because we didn’t
have time to see it
all, which was a pity.
/Agnes

14. Farewell
After five fantastic days with a lot of fun and many new experiences we stood there with our bags packed and
ready to go home.
It´s very early and everybody was pretty tired. Even if we just had spent five days with these people it felt very
hard to say goodbye. Many of us hade created friendship and relationships with the students from the other
countries on a special ways. Of course we all looked forward to sleep in our own rooms and not always be
surrounded by other persons. But we all understood that it would take a very long time before we would see
our friends again. So there we stood at bus station, the sun was slowly rising and we hugged all the people
that have giving us five of the best days of our lives!
