In the morning we stayed at school and we had a cultural exchange through interactive games.
In the afternoon we were divided into two groups: one went to Lisbon and the other stayed at the beach.

# data[].attributes.body
I don't have anything that I didn't like but a thing that didn't always enjoy was the food.

# data[].attributes.body
Last day. We boarded the plane and returned to Italy.

# data[].attributes.body
In the morning we visited Belem, a district of Lisbon.
After a quick "treasure hunt" for information on Belem, we returned to Cascais and went for a swim. Unfortunately it started to rain and thunder struck, so I wasn't able to go for the swim in the ocean.

# data[].attributes.body
In the morning we went to visit a museum on territorial morphology and an expert explained the methods adopted in Cascais to reduce pollution.
We returned to school for lunch and after lunch we did some activities with bicycles, followed by a lesson where we compared the Italian language with the Portuguese.

# data[].attributes.body
On the 21st we went to Sintra. We walked for a long while and walked the long Walls of Sintra. It really was a long walk! We also visited the Castle. At a certain point, it started pouring rain and we all got wet! Once at the castle we waited about an hour for the gates to open for school groups. At 15.30 we got in and quickly visited.
Our last stop was the westernmost country of Europe.

# data[].attributes.body
We remained in Lisbon all day. It's a lovely city with beautiful churches. I enjoyed myself very much, also thanks to the nice company of the group.
We had dinner in a "warehouse" and it turned out to be very nice: the food was good and so was the atmosphere.

# data[].attributes.body
The day began with a visit to the Lisbon Oceanarium, one of the biggest in the world.
Next we went for a walk through the National Park.
In the end, we caught the underground and returned to the hostel.

# data[].attributes.body
We arrived with a 737-800 airplane, and first of all reached the hostel in Cascais – 9.34 a.m. I saw the calm ocean, hot sand, houses, some boats far away among which a three-mast boat and a billionaire house with a wind turbine. The weather was nice and hot.

The activity I liked the most was the "treasure hunt" in Sintra.

# data[].attributes.body
I've learned that hard work and perseverance always pays off.

# data[].attributes.body
The thing I loved the most was the company with my school mates.

The most beautiful landscape I saw was Sintra. I liked this landscape because it has a lot of green areas and two castles. It seemed like a enchanted place.

# data[].attributes.body
I don't know if I have a moment that I can say is the funniest moment because I really did enjoy myself all the time and had fun.
If I have to choose a funniest moment I would say the night in the dormitory with my friends because we played cards, talked and laughed.

# data[].attributes.body
The differences between our school and the host school is that the host school is newer and smaller, it has less laboratories but more free spaces for students.

# data[].attributes.body
Before the trip, I was excited because I didn't know what to expect from this Erasmus.

# data[].attributes.body
I loved visited Portugal, infact I never have been here. The landscape is wonderful and the cities and places into them too. I'm really surprised from how Portuguese people have talked to us and their love. I really want to meet them at least one more time, maybe in Italy when they will come. I like talk to other people who aren't Italians and this because I can use my English and know other countries, people and landscapes.

# data[].attributes.body
I have learned some Portuguese words like massa what means pasta or roupa which means clothes. But I also improve my English, infact I talked so much in this week, first with the guide at the ocenarium, then with the biology and French teachers and the most interesting talk with the Portuguese girls from the class which we have known. Now I can say something I Portuguese and know where I'm going, yes not too much, if we must take the train or visit some places.

# data[].attributes.body
The saddest moment in our journey is on 23rd May, infact we want to go to the ocean to have fun and swim. The saddest thing has arrived when we went outside the ostel and the weather change so it has been raining. So we couldn't swim in the ocean.

The most beautiful landscape which I see is in Sintra. We visited the national palace of Sintra, into there are a lot of masterpieces infact everywhere you watch you will be stunning. The garden is a wonderful demonstration of precision, it is beautiful because you can watch how people take care of its. After that, we were at the Sintra's castle and there we can admire at one of the best amazing landscapes which I've seen.
You can watch at the long wall line which protectived the Castel from the enemies. I also see a part of Lisbon and in the background the ocean. I love it.

Era la chiesa gotica più imponente di Lisbona ma ora ne restano solo le rovine. Entrando mi sono subito il motivo per cui non aveva il tetto e internet mi ha dato subito una risposta. Nel 1755 un forte terremoto colpì Lisbona e la cattedrale subì numerosi danni, ma subiti iniziarono dei progetti di ricostruzione che cessarono alla morte di Maria I e non ripresero mai perchè le sue rovine erano e sono considerate ancora oggi particolarmente affascinanti.
Ho trovato questa visita molto interessante.

The activity I liked the most is the portugal-italiy immersion, when we have divided in some groups and for all of them there is a specific theme. We had to search some words link to the theme and translate them from Portuguese to Italian or the contrary.
It was an amazing moment because we could communicate to each other for search words but we also could talk of other things at the finish of the work and thanks to its I know Vera, a Portuguese girl.

# data[].attributes.body
Surely the funniest moment was walking in the walls of the castle of Sintra under a lot of rain, but still admiring the beauty of the walls and the landscape.

# data[].attributes.body
In this journey I didn't like how the weather was. Let me explain, I love the sunny and the hot temperatures, but l also like the rain. The problem is when we are in a local, restaurant or in the school and outside there's a hot sunny day, but when we go out the weather change and we have the rain. It's awful and because of that we couldn't do some activities.

# data[].attributes.body
Their school is a bit different. In Italy we have nursery, elementary, mid and high school, while in Portugal they have a school for the children like our nursery, after that one a big school where teens from 6 to 14 years. This one has divided in three grade and they study some general subjects, like Portuguese and Maths. From 15 to 17 they have the high school with a lot of subjects which everyone has and other two specific subject to add.

# data[].attributes.body
The activity I liked the most is when we have search words in Portuguese and we have to translate them in Italian.

The Portuguese school is a little different from the Italian one, in fact we don't have common places where you can stay during the lunch break, and in Portugal there are many more pitches and green areas dedicated to young people.

Before the trip I was eager to discover and learn about a different culture than ours and to visit many interesting places.

# data[].attributes.body
I thought the school system was similar  to ours... I thought wrong, it's very different and as they showed it to us, it looks very interesting.
the school basically looks better in terms of maintenance.

# data[].attributes.body
I was very excited because it's been a long time since I took a plane... and i love it

# data[].attributes.body
I think the school system is very different from ours. I liked the possibility for students to be able to stop at school in dedicated places after class.

the school is very different because the Portuguese have a different system of the school like the classroom and the subject

I think that the Portuguese school is better then ours. It was better looking and more organised. It is very big, probably bigger than Malignani.

# data[].attributes.body
I was a little bit nervous and stressed because I never see a European capital

# data[].attributes.body
I was a little agitated at first because I had never taken an airliner before.

# data[].attributes.body
The school is different because they have  a big school canteen ,they have different grades .
They also have room more colorful.
They have an amazing chemistry’s laboratory .

# data[].attributes.body
I think structurally it seems to me that the Portuguese school is better made but on a formative and cultural level, I prefer malignani because there are more exams to certify your skills.

# data[].attributes.body
Before the flight I was nervous for the trip but after the plane landed I was happy.

# data[].attributes.body
I was very excited and couldn't wait to leave, the trip lasted two hours but in the company of my friends I immediately felt comfortable.

# data[].attributes.body
I think that the host school different is that they have different subject to us. An example is philosophy that in Portugal is obligatory while in Italy isn't.

# data[].attributes.body
I was very excited because it was the first time that I have travelled by plane. But also I was nervous because it's the first time that I go in a different country, and I have to talk in English.

# data[].attributes.body
I've never been in Portugal, so i don't really know how It can look like.
Then my expectations are the hope to see a new country and a different culture than mine and make new Friends.
At first, I am happy because in this trip i'll have the possibility to challenge my language skills, learn some important lesson from others and have (for the first time ever) the chance to travel without my parents o any relatives.
At least, the bigger feeling i'm having before taking off is excitement.

The paella with salted codfish on Friday at dinner in the centre of Lisbon. Fantastic!

# data[].attributes.body
I think their system is very similar to the American one. The most different thing is the organisation of school years and exams. The school was modern and the students could also have many years of difference.

# data[].attributes.body
I am very euphoric and happy because Portugal is a country that has always fascinated me for the sea, food, football and also because it is the first time I visit.

Cod fish cake: it's like our "arancino/a" (just for the shape, not the taste) and inside it as cod fish and melted cheese

they have a badge to enter and exit the school and their school sistem is very similar to the English or American one ( I think).

# data[].attributes.body
It's different divided and finishes one year earlier.
I think theyr organization Is Better and students have more care about school's materials and classes.

We already are on the plane, we did the check-in and I went to my seat. I never been in Portugal, so my expectations are low but in my opinion I think this journey can surprise myself. I will get the best from this school trip, infact I want to improve my English and I will have a big opportunity to do it. I believe we will have fun and we will spend an awesome week in Portugal. I also am hungry because I don't eat from yesterday  at 8 pm to today right now, infact now I'm eating one of my two croissant and I feel better. During the flight I'm going to sleep or read something, I don't decide yet.

Now we are on the Planet waiting, so since I have some time I decides to write this. I feel extremely tired (since thi mourning I woke up at 3 am) and I am full of anxiety because what if this trip Is nothing likes I Wish?
I really Hope this experience will be Amazing. I am also a lot hungry since this mourning I didn't have time to eat.
