Hi Everybody!

How are you?

I am sure you all have made your plans for the long weekend of 21st March until 24th! For the people who need a little bit of inspiration, I think I  can give you some greath tips! So I make sure that nobody will be bored in this weekend.

I will go back to Holland for a few days, to visit my family! I am realy looking forward to it! For the people who stay in Barcelona, will be a lot of options. You can go out on Thursday, because you do not have to stand up early for school! There are a lot of good clubs in Barcelona were you can go on Thursday night. (more…)

Hi!

Like I have mentioned before, Barcelona is a great city! The city is very big and it has everything you need: a lot of shops in the centre, very good clubs, a beautiful beach and great restaurants! I am sure you will never be bored when you are in Barcelona. There are a lot of things you can do!

If you don´t like the beach you can go to the city centre. You can chill out on Plaza Catalunya or you can shop (´till you drop). There is also a very big shopping centre at the seaside, Marémagnum. You can also sit there on a chair and just watch people pass.This shopping centre is also opened on Sundays!
Last weekend I went on Friday night to Shoko. This is a great club at playa Barceloneta. After that we went to Catwalk, it is also a good club very close to Shoko. We had a wonderful night out!

In Barcelona you can also do a lot of other things! Last weekend I went to a very popular, interesting and fascinating exhibition in Museum Marítim.

Hi everybody!

Had a nice weekend?!

Last night it was a very important footbal match in Barcelona. Barcelona vs. Celtic!! I am sure some of you are the lucky owners of a ticket! It was such an exciting game. When they played in Glasgow, FC Barcelona won!! Of course and so they did yesterday! The matchs were really stretching, but in the end Barcelona beated Celtic.

The English and Scottish footbal is known for its Hooligans. So there were thousands of Celtic Glasgow supporters in the centre of Barcelona! There was even an ‘amusement’ area just for them!

This Sunday FC Barcelona plays here in Barcelona against Villareal!

Hi everyone!

Today was a beautiful day! The weather was pretty nice! On a day like this there are a lot of things to do in Barcelona!

This morning I went to class. We have learned a lot today, like we always do! The class is pretty intensive, but time flies when you are having fun. Before I realised, the classes were finished!

After class I went to the centre of Barcelona, because I had a lot of free time to spent. This is what I like very much about this school: I learn a lot and I have also a lot of free time to spent to do things that I want to do. So, I decided to go to the centre of Barcelona. It is very close to the school! I took a walk through the centre and I enjoyed the sun. The centre looks very diferent on a sunny day. People are smiling and it seems like everyone is happy! I also walked to the sea. It takes only 15 minutes to walk from the school. I enjoyed the sea and the sun. Like I did last Saturday, I went to the beach with two friends of mine. Though, it is too cold to swim, I think. Some people did not think the same, because a few people were swimming! (more…)

Hi everyone!

I am Valerie, 19 years old. I am a third-year student of the university of Maastricht. I study International Business and Languages. Now I am here in Barcelona for an internship. First I will study for four weeks at Camino Barcelona to improve my Spanish. After that I will do an internship at the school. This is the second time I have studied at this school. In October 2007 I was here for 2 weeks. I had a great time! That´s the reason why I have decided to go back to Camino Barcelona. I started my second course a week ago.I have learned a lot so far! The group sizes are very small, so the teachers can pay extra attention to every single student. I have to speak Spanish in class. Sometimes this is a little hard for me, but with a little help of the teachers it is not a problem. I am glad that my Spanish language skills improves very quickly.
