DAY 1
Our day started at 3:15am near the sport's hall, there we entered into the cars on which we travelled quite a long time till we reached Krakow. We
arrived at the airport around 7 to 8am. Our flight was scheduled at 9:30am. We flew with Ryanair, it took about 3 hours and 30 minutes to arrive at the Valèncian airport. The flight was quite alright. Some of us were scared,but of course everything turned out fine in the end. When we arrived in València, the
Swedish group was already waiting for us there. We boarded the bus with them and
travelled to Castellón to visit the Biopark, and this is how our interesting and exciting
program began.
SOMETHING ABOUT CASTELLÓN…
Now let's read something about the main town we stayed in - Castellón. Nestled in the heart
of the beautiful region of Valencia, Castellón de la Plana is known for its rich history, stunning
architecture, and vibrant culture. It is home to several beautiful beaches along the Costa del
Azahar. Visitors can enjoy the sun, sand, and crystal-clear waters here, even we visited the
beach later in the week. The sunset was beautiful there. It is also known for its lively festivals
and celebration. The local language spoken in Castellón de la Plana
is Valèncian. Valèncian, a variety of Catalan, is widely spoken in the region and contributes
to the city’s unique linguistic and cultural identity. They even teach it in schools!
Did you know that València means valour or bravery? The Spanish city got its name
in 138BC after the Romans recognised the bravery of the soldiers and called it
Valentia Edetanorum
