Vicent Roig https://padlet.com/xustur1/2jlumyfuxhaqsv3h/wish/1231887463 Around three years ago I did a trip towards Segovia with some of my relatives. It was Wednesday morning when we drove to the airport and took a plane, first to Madrid. There, we booked an amazing modern hotel, which we were in there for several days until to take a train and go to Segovia.

When we arrived, I was so impressed when I looked up and saw that spectacular aqueduct, made by romans in order to transport and manage the water. That's one suggestion which is worth to visit Segovia. Also the food I ate was a piece of small pig which was delicious, although big enough.

It was my very first time going back to the Philippines since I lived in Ibiza. The trip was full of beautiful moments and adventures. 

First, we went to a famous island called Palawan by plane where a lot of tourists come back and forth to see these amazing sceneries such as evergreen mountains, the turquoise clear water, the food... We stayed in a resort for the meantime, it had a hawaiian resort vibe, it was beautiful. 

 I was extremely happy because I got to experience coral diving. I got to see some beautiful corals and swam a lot. The other day, we went to the Calauit Safari to see the zoo, we saw zebras, giraffes, snakes, monkeys... The good thing about this safari is that we are the one who are in caged while the animals are free to go anywhere on the forest. 

I was amazed to see the the beauty of my country, so many breathtaking places that makes you feel at ease and peaceful. I will definitely go back to see this beautiful country and will experience many more adventures.

We went to an adventure parck and there we met Maria, a young lady who instructured us how to do the activities.

First of all, Maria showed us all the materials that we were going to use and how to use them. Leter, we started walking and she showed us all the activities. One of them was jumping down a zip line.

When we saw the hight we got scared, but when we jumped down it was super funny, i felt like i was flying, the scenari was breathtaking, you could see the forest and a beautiful part of the city.

It was awesom. I'm thinking of going back with my family or some friends. There they showed me how jump down a zip line and i'm excited to help my friends hew to do it too.]]> 2021-02-26 10:31:19 UTC https://padlet.com/xustur1/2jlumyfuxhaqsv3h/wish/1244662281 Noa C. | My holiday in Paris https://padlet.com/xustur1/2jlumyfuxhaqsv3h/wish/1252062426
On Easter in April 2019 I went to Paris with my mother, my friend Toni and his mother. It was the first time we went to Paris and the trip was full of incredible moments.

First we visited the city, the architecture was incredible and old giving the feeling of being in a bygone era. We crossed the city by boat through the Seine river we saw many  beautiful places and we enjoyed the night walk through the river.

The rest of the trip we were visiting the most characteristic and important places of the city, we visited the Notre Dam cathedral but we could not enter because one day before we arrived it burned , we also visited the Louvre museum nd we could see the Mona Lisa. Finally we visited the Eiffel Tower we went up, from the top we could see the whole city the view was incredible and breathtaking.

It was totally awesome. I'm thinking of going back some day and continue discovering this wonderful and unique city.

I was very excited because I wanted to visit Italy for years.
The first day, we visited the city. Some cathedrals and churches and shops. Rhe most special thing was in the night, when we visited the Colosseum. It was breathtacking.
The next day we went to Florencia and visited some museums and other important and characteristic places of the city. We saw ''El David'' by Michelangelo and the museum by Leonardo Da Vinci.
The rest of the trip we were visiting Pisa and the Vaticano. The tower of Pisa was very beautiful, but unfortunately we couldn't enter. The city of Vaticano was very nice, my favourite thing were the soldiers of the city, they looked like clowns or jesters.

It was one of my facourite trips, and i'm thinking of going back with my friends and dicover more of the country.

It was the first time I was there and it was amazing.

First, we took a plane from Ibiza to Milan. We then took a bus there and the driver was a very funny person, this makes the transportation much more enjoyable. During the trip from Milan to Rome we were visiting places like Venice, Florence or Naples, I was amazed.

When we arrived in Rome, we immediately visited the Colosseum and the museums in the area. We finally went to the Vatican and saw the Pope, who gave a speech to the public.

It was one of the most curious and fun experiences of my life. I would go again without any doubt.

None of us had been there before, so it was a new experience for us but in the end we all had lots of fun. 

The first day we woke up late in the morning because we were all tired of having been inside a plane for three hours, so we decided to stay in the hotel to relax. 

The following days we went to amazing places as Timamfaya's park where I took lots of pictures, Jameos del Agua a great place where we did a guided tour, Jardín del Cactus and more places which I will always keep in my mind. 

In conclusion, my trip to Lanzarote met my expectations and I would say that it was one of the best holidays in my life. I hope to repeat the experience soon!]]> 2021-03-02 12:16:44 UTC https://padlet.com/xustur1/2jlumyfuxhaqsv3h/wish/1257898122 Jordi Torres - My holiday in Madrid https://padlet.com/xustur1/2jlumyfuxhaqsv3h/wish/1261145043 In January of 2017 I went to Lanzarote with my family to celebrate the Christmas holidays. We have been other times, but we went again because we really like the place.

The first day, we woke up early because we like to take advantage of the morning, and we went to have breakfast in a bar, and then we went for a walk in Gran Via.

The following days we went to great places, we went to the Royal Palace, the Prado Museum and Puerta del Sol. And we have many photos on those sites.

It was totally awesome, and when the current situation improves, we will go again.

None of us had been to Catalonia, other than Barcelona, so traveling to a rural part of the province was an experience that moved us all.

A large part of the trip was dedicated to going to Andorra and other places where there was snow, and it was great, but what I liked the most was when the penultimate day we went to do a walking route through "els 7 gorgs", which were seven waterfalls , each one bigger and more precious. Some of us even felt like it was March, and we bathed in them. it was an incredible day.

In conclusion, it has been the best trip I have made in my whole life, and I hope to be able to do many more like this]]> 2021-03-03 10:48:12 UTC https://padlet.com/xustur1/2jlumyfuxhaqsv3h/wish/1263060080 Valentina Estela, my holiday in Girona mateoee05 https://padlet.com/xustur1/2jlumyfuxhaqsv3h/wish/1265617950 In August 2017, I went to Sant Feliu de Guíxols, a province of Girona. There, my grandmother has a big house where the whole family meets in summer.

Every morning my cousins and I went to the beach, I was able to meet a lot of people and spent amazing moments with them. My uncle has a boat so I did many water activities like scuba diving, wakesurf and fishing. Wakesurf is an exciting activity in which you hold onto a rope that is hooked to a boat and you have to stand on a board. 

In summer time there are a lot of festivals in the village, so I could enjoy the fair and electronic music with a Dj, it was one of the best nights in my life!

It was totally unbelievable and I would definitely repeat the trip with my family and all the people I met.

I did this trip with my family and with some friends of my parents.
 
The trip started in Venice, where we stayed for two days because we went in advance. After those two days, we boarded the cruise, and there began the best experience of my life. The ship was very luxurious and huge, it had fifteen floors where there was everything you can imagine in a city.
 
As for the places we visited, the one I liked the most was Santorini, it is an island where all things are white and the top is blue, and it is famous for having donkeys that at the top of the island take you down to the port . But that is not the only thing, there you can eat the best yogurts in the world, they are incredible. Apart from Santorini, we visit many more islandswhich were also fabulous, but in my opinion, not as great as Santorini.
 
During the trip I felt super happy because I was getting to know things that I did not know and I began to feel curious about Greek culture. I would absolutely go to Greece again without a doubt.

This activity consisted in giving a boat and go near a little island to see a lot of seals. This experience could be possible with my parents and my brother in Netherlands.

In the beginning we went to a beach for wait the boat. Some minutes later the boat arrived to a dock and my family and I went up. We sailed for a half an hour and during this time I felt excited, because I love animals and it was the first time that I saw that kind of free animals.

The scenery was awesome, I could  see the coast moving away and the seals getting closer and closer.

It was totally amazing. I wouldn't like go to the same place an other time because I won't feel the same, but I would do more activities like this, to see free acuatic animals ]]> 2021-03-05 18:49:44 UTC https://padlet.com/xustur1/2jlumyfuxhaqsv3h/wish/1275085779
