Footbal match

Wednesday, March 5th, 2008

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!

A day in Barcelona

Wednesday, February 27th, 2008

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…)

My wonderful experience at Camino Barcelona!

Tuesday, February 19th, 2008

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.
