Escola Secundária Maria Amália Vaz de Carvalho, PORTUGAL Students impressions from the meeting in Spain -December 2016

1. Participating in Erasmus+ was a wonderful experience! When we left the plane
we didn't know what to expect, but it turned out to be an awesome experience!
There were seven coutries participating in this meeting: Bulgaria, England,
Portugal, Greece, Cyprus, Spain and Sweden; each country brought three to
five students to Valencia. Every student had to be hosted so there were about
thirty students from Valencia hosting us. All of the hosts were really nice and
welcoming and so were their families and homes.
The school at Valencia was Florida Secundaria. Florida high school and
University were the places where we had most of our classes. However, we had
a few classes in Valencia lab (a kind of university to create companies). In our
classes we learned a lot about creativity and how to be creative and also about
the geography/history of Valencia. Valencia is a very beautiful city, full of history
and culture. We had the opportunity and pleasure to visit it with our hosts and
our colleagues from the other countries, but there was a day when we had a
guide that gave us a more cultural and historical background of Valencia while
we were doing a peddypaper.
We loved the experience and meeting people from all around the world with
who we still keep in touch today. We came to Portugal with our horizons
expanded.
We are thankful to have been given this opportunity.
