¡Hola! ¿Qué tal?

As you already know I'm 16 and it was a great to meet you all. I have to say a few days before coming here I was already missing my bed and my friends (bed mostly tho). But after the first day i fell in love with this place. I didn't know that visiting a new city and meeting new people was such a pleasure for me. While being here I made a lot of friends and I got to know myself better. Still I would say that I'm open-minded and ready for new. I'm quite introverted but I'll do anything to make people around me feel great. I'll adjust to the rest quickly and have a lot of fun. I love music and movies. I just found out that random dancing and singing in the streets are making the best memories and I have a lot of these in my mind. It's all thanks to you ❤️

Visiting Elche was a wonderful experience I won't forget. At the airport I've met my host and his family. I was really stressed but this people were so kind that I felt comfortable this time. We have gone to their house and ate a Spanish dinner. Next day we went to highschool and had a welcome speech from a student from Elche school who could speak polish. We had a tour of the school and met other people from the Erasmus program. After that we went to Palm Groove which was really beautiful. In the Groove there was a museum presenting traditional spanish house. In both we've taken a lot of pictures. Later that day we've had a freetime so we were playing basketball and walking around the centre of elche. We've eaten at the Tapas restaurant which are spanish traditional little sandwiches. At the end of that day I felt like it had been 10 days instead of just one.

The next day we've went to Alicante by bus. It was really beautiful city with a lot of interesting things. We were in the castle of Santa Barbara at the top of the mountain in the highest spot in Alicante. It was really fabolous sight from there. The castle were built by Arabs in 9th century and conquered by Spanish in 12th. The guide told us a lot of legends and interesting stories about this castle.

The wednesday we've been sharing our experience in being in Elche and comparing it to the Wejherowo experiences. Later that day we went to see the Town Hall of Elche and met with the rulers of the city. They told us about elche and and the legend that goes behind their emblem.

Then we've been seeing an old town of Elche

We started our experience in Spain by getting off the planend

being warmly welcomed by our host families. The first

meeting was a huge excitiment. Then we headed home and

got to know eachother with Spanish people.

Next day beggined

with reception at the school center then we met in aula and

said little about ourselves. Next we were shown the school and

had lunch. The first Spanish attraction was visiting Palm Grove.

For many of us it was the first time in a place like this. After a

short break with the family, all project participants went to a

meeting in the city center. It was a chance to get to know each

other better.

We started Tuesday with workshops during which,

among other things, we made soaps - it was one of our favorite

activities. Then we went to Alicante and spent the rest of the day

discovering the secrets of this city.

On Wednesday, the first point

of our day was working on the project, then we all signed the card.

Then we visited the town hall and the museum. In the evening,

we went with our host families to the towns nearby Elche.

¡Hola! Oliwka's here!

Elche is beautiful and holds some kind of magic. If you go there you will be drawn and sooner or later you won't want to leave. While being here we got to visit the town hall and learn about history of Elche. Also we went to the Palm grove to admire the charm of palms. The most important one was the palm brought here by Austrian Empress Elizabeth. Seeing exotic animals and flora was a view taking the breath away. Peacocks were a cherry on top in Palmeral de Elche. They made place magic and royal, showing importance of its history. Leaving Elche for a minute we also visited Alicante. I can't understand why people say it's an ugly place because for me it was equally pretty. Maybe they've shown us only the best part? Either way views were amazing especially from the top of a castle. Honestly I can't wait to come here in the future. València is mesmerising province and I'll explore it more deeply in some time.

¡Hasta luego!

Elche is a unique place, mostly because of its palm trees. But those trees have already an explanation. The Muslims designed "el Palmeral" to extract lots of water. In fact, it is the biggest palms orchard in Europe. So, I think we have to thank Muslims for creating such an amazing scenery.

But there's not only palm trees in Elche, we have another incredible places like the Basilica of saint Maria, which is a beautiful church. Also, there are two castles: Altamira's castle and Calahorra's castle.

I think "ilicitanos" have an awesome city and very interesting.

We think the climate change is a big problem because the weather has changed a lot. Animals, plants and people we are all suffering the consequences of the climate change. That would be a big problem in the future and the most important thing is that is we don't do nothing to solve it the planet will dissapeared

We love the weather, people and palm trees <33

Climate change presents numerous threats to Elche, Spain, including rising sea levels exacerbating coastal erosion and flooding, water scarcity due to altered precipitation patterns, intensified heatwaves posing health and economic risks, increased wildfire risk in surrounding areas, loss of biodiversity, particularly in marine habitats, and potential disruptions to the tourism-dependent economy. These impacts underscore the urgency for adaptation and mitigation measures to safeguard the city's infrastructure, ecosystems, and socio-economic well-being against the adverse effects of climate change.

# data[].attributes.body
The climate change I think that is one of the most preocupations and problems that involved the world . After talk with our polish partners we reached this conclusions: both the citys have to build more cycle line and introduces more public buses. This can make our world better and it can reduce the polushion of the planet that is one of the origins of the climate change.

We hope that this problem will be resolved.

Hi, it’s Ania and Olga and we are absolutely loving it here. Since we have arrived the thing we adore the most is weather and people. The views are amazing and we could not be more grateful for the opportunity of making those beautiful memories. The time spent here is really valuable and worth all the work we have putted in our abilities. So far we have visited Alicante, Museum of Fiesta, Elche’s city centre, Palm Grove and also Town Hall. We’ve done some educational activities, like making soap, ice cream and also some biology courses with real lungs and hearts. It was really fascinating. The thing we are never gonna forget are our evening meets up where we could be with each other making memories.

Spain surprised me soo much in positive way, because I was stressed how it will be in abroad country with people that I don’t know,

But my expectations were quite opposite.

I can say that Spain is the best country that I ever visited, mostly by the people and their personality,

Our hosts were soo open and lovely for us and I am very very happy that I could meet them and also that I could spend one of the most beautiful moments in my life with them, with their smile and positive energy that I gained from them. I can say that this is the most beautiful thing about Spain.

They were soo caring because they didn’t left us alone even for a moment,

Fact that we are form other countries makes no problem because we were getting on well with them speaking by English language

But weather, climate and place was alsoo amusing, I don’t remember when I was swimming in the sea during February jajaj

I didn’t know that Elche and Alicante are such a big cities, there were lots of beautiful sights and historical places,

We visited soo many meaningful places in that cities which were very interesting, also local cuisine was soo tasty with great paella on the top

Also I was shocked about amount of palm trees, and  such an exotic trees that there are no in Poland

I looking forward and I can’t wait until great Spanish hosts will come to visit us in Poland
