No podría nunca olvidarme de este viaje a Santiago de Compostela: todo, menos que el tiempo, fue perfecto.

En primer lugar la familia era disponible y gentil, el piso donde vivía era bastante grande y las habitaciones eran muy luminosas porque tenían muchas ventanas.

Me gustaría levantarme a las 8 y ir a la escuela sólo tres horas cada día como allá,  pero no creo sea posible hacerlo en Italia también... La actividad que preferí fue entrevistar a la gente del lugar para pedir informaciones sobre la comida por ejemplo.

Me gustó mucho la zona antigua de la ciudad, pero también la nueva para ir de compras con mis compañeras. La cosa que es más diferente de Italia son los horarios: almuerzo a las dos y media, cena a las diez y todos (también los mayores) salen de marcha.

Querría regresar, pero antes me gustaría visitar otras ciudades de todo el mundo

Nuestra estancia en Santiago fue una experiencia maravillosa. Aunque  fuimos allí solo una semana lo que más me ha gustado fue nuestra familia española; todos eran muy amables, corteses y habladores. Despedirme de ellos fue muy triste. La gente en Santiago es tan bonita como la ciudad, llena de monumentos, que todos tienen que visitar una vez en su vida. El museo que más me gustó fue lo de la peregrinación, que visitamos el martes y me encantó ver el oceano cuando fuimos a Finisterre. También las actividades que hicimos por la tarde fueron muy interesantes y divertidas, sobre todo los bailes Gallegos y la caza del tesoro, que mi equipo ganó. Si no fuera por la lluvia y por el tiempo atmosferico, habría sido el viaje perfecto, pero nos divertimos, a pesar del frío. La comida, aunque fuera diferente, me gustó muchissimo, sobre todo lo que cocinaba nuestra madre española y chocolate con churros. Pienso que este viaje me ha hecho más indipendiente, madura, responsable y espero que tendré la posibilidad de vivir otra vez una experiencia tan fantástica con mis compañeros.

I smelt of my father's scent since he had kissed me before I flew to Santiago.
Our Spanish mother has curly, blond hair. She is very nice, like her flat in the new part of the city. It isn't actually very big, but in our tiny bedroom there's a big window you can see the street and the shops from.

I'm writing from the airplane... I don't want to leave Santiago.
I think a piece of my heart is still there: inside my Spanish host family's house, in the old streets of the city, at school and wherever I went.
I just want to thank everyone who made me live this fantastic experience.

Food is today's keyword: in the morning we had to interview people in Santiago's market. It's quite different from Italian markets because here there are permanent stalls.
In the afternoon we tried chocolate and churros, one of the most delicious things I have eaten in Spain.

Today's activity was basically interviewing people and asking them if they go out at night.
The result? Also elderly people go out more than me.
Do you imagine them dancing all night? I don't, but in Santiago it's very common.
Ah! We also danced today. It was great fun.

In the morning we went to school and in the afternoon we participated in a treasure hunt. It was a lot of fun and very competitive.
Unfortunately my team didn't win, what a pity! We got fewer sweeties!
In the evening Terina cooked us pizza and it was very good, even better than the last one I ate in Italy.

I'm having a lot of fun here, but school is haunting us everywhere, also in Spain.
I thought we would do boring grammar lessons, but actually we talked a lot with our mother-tongue teacher, Laura.
The short films we saw in the afternoon were so interesting that I was nearly falling asleep...

Today we went to Finisterre by coach. During this long journey the guide continued speaking all the time, but I wasn't listening...
I just wanted to take some photos. Unfortunately the weather was rainy and very windy.
Chocolate, churros and friends warmed up this cold day.

Alessia read me her horoscope: "Today Sagittarius must establish his /her relationship with nature again". It was true! We walked in nature this afternoon.
But... what's nature? sun, flowers, pic nics... NO! Rain, rain and more rain!
Now, do you still believe in horoscopes?

In the morning we said goodbye to our host families and teachers and, later, to Santiago. I'm so sad about it! It seemed as if we'd just arrived there and we already had to leave. So we are back home now, back to our ordinary life. See you soon Santiago!

We ate "chocolate con churros". With all this food I'll probably put on weight but it doesn't matter, I love the food here! In the morning, during our classes, we went to the local market to interview people about what they usually eat and I'm in love with Santiago's cake!

Uno, dos, tres! We had a lot of fun dancing together. I love dancing and with my schoolmates I had a really good time. Our afternoon continued at the cinema with a White bear named Norman and his adventure to save the North Pole. It was a cartoon but I liked it.

We're the winners of the treasure hunt and I'm so happy about it! The treasure is made of sweets, popcorns and crisps so we are literally drowning in food. Today was also Matteo's birthday, so we bought him and Riccardo two beautiful t-shirts. I hope they liked them!

Monday means school and even in Santiago this hasn't changed. Our teacher is very nice and lessons are quite different from what we usually do. We do less grammar and more conversation here. Our break lasts 30 minutes and this seems very unusual to me!

Our alarm clock rang quite early today! We visited Finisterre, and it took us an hour and a half to get there by coach but I enjoyed our trip. The weather didn't help us: like yesterday it was rainy and very windy. Even through it all,  we saw the ocean and we were at the world's end.

As my horoscope said "I have to keep close to nature" and that's what we did! After we had spent the whole morning visiting the old part of the city, we walked through Alameda Park and then to Selva Negra. It's been raining all afternoon, but, anyway, we had so much fun together.

We've just arrived in our "new house"! After a 3-hour flight and a short bus trip, we met our Spanish mum waiting for us at the bus stop. She's very kind, like the other family members and I really love our bedroom. There's an amazing view from our window!

En 1597 Mateo López diseñó el monasterio de San Martín Pinario. Su construcción empezó en el siglo XVI y terminó dos siglos después. Otros arquitectos trabajaron al proyecto, pero mantuvieron el diseño de López.
La fachada del monasterio es de estilo baroco. Dentro del monasterio hay dos claustros y un museo, donde se exponen muchas tallas, manuscrictos y pinturas.
La fachada de la iglesia presenta muchas figuras como la estatua de Martin de Tours, mientras el interior es caraterizado por un retablo dorado

El Monasterio de San Martin Pinario es el segundo monumento religioso más grande después de la catedral y el segundo monasterio en tamaño de toda España, después el Escorial de Madrid. Dejó de ser monasterio en 1800 y actualmente parte de su instalaciones están dedicadas a la residencia universitaria y a diferentes sucursales administrativas. Fue fundado por un grupo de monjes benedectinos, que se establecieron en el siglo XI, en un lugar llamado Pignario, para los pinos que habia allí.
