I DID IT…IN ENGLISH „Let‟s CreEducate‟ project was my first experience abroad. My Spanish dream came true when I met new people from other countries and enjoyed the time spent there. To my surprise I communicated very well in English and the best thing was that I talked only in English. I met Polish, Turkish, Slovenian and Lithuanian children there. I was impressed with the Polish girls‟ level of English knowledge, as they were the ones who I communicated the most with. They told me that the Polish teachers were very strict sometimes. Then, there were the Slovenian students who told us about theirs hobbies, especially basketball. It was an experience that I will never forget because I had the chance to discover new places, new people, Spanish traditions and last but not I least it was the first time I travelled by plane. Radu Cristea, class VII B GO BEYOND THE BORDERS! A place to remember My Spanish experience in La Coruna was the best of my life. La Coruna is in the North West of Spain near the Atlantic Ocean. It is called the city of galleries because all the buildings looked- elegant as if they were dressed in lace. We were guided through the most important sights of the area: the farthest West point of Europe, Santiago de Compostella- an old town filled with history and charm. We also went to Maria Pita City Hall, where we talked with the mayor and his translator. We were impressed by the mayor’s throne. It’s enormous! We were in the central zone in La Coruna. In front of us there was a University and behind us an enormous cathedral. Around us there were so many shops!!! We also visited the Hercules tower and the “Aquarium Finistererrae” I want to go back some time…I have a message for the readers: if you have the chance to visit these wonderful places, don’t miss it!!!
