Last holy week I was to new york though I believe that we have a vision of new york as in the movies and i saw a very poor zones. I recommend to visit it but i never will live there An affectionate greeting
I didn't think it was going to be as great as it is. It's a big city, where you can find people of any country, so it's impossible you feel like a stranger. There are so many places to visit, like museums or Berlin's Cathedral. You can visit Berlin's Wall too (where a lot of artists have painted whatever they think without fear of what people would think), have a milkshake on the Sony Center, go to the Reichstag Dome, or simply walk through Brandembourg's Gate. A very funny thing I found when I arrived was the little man of the traffic lights .On the West side of Berlin it's like the green and red man of Spain, but on the East side of the city they have very different shape and germans are very proud of it. There is an "Ampelman" store in Berlin. That really impressed me!
To sum up, I think Berlin it's a city with a lot of culture to learn, a lot of people to meet, but, specially, it's a place where you can have a lot of fun!
This winter I have travelled with my family to Baqueira that is in Catalan Pyrenees, I have gone with friends and my family. I have liked this trip very much, the ski resort was very nice, there was many and long tracks which had a few very nice sights with a beautiful landscape. I have liked also the food, specially the meat which was very tasted!. People who lived there were very nice as well as people of different countries like France, Germany or Italy. To sum up, I recommend this place for everybody. It doesn't matter if you practise ski or you don't because there are many beautiful villages near there and I am sure you will amuse yourself.
Last year, I went to Benidorm. for my Christmas holidays, I was going to have a rest at my uncle’s beach house for a few days. When I got to Benidorm. I felt really sick from the four hour bus ride. The weather is very hot, but it was raining I had forgotten to bring my umbrella. I can still remember how bad I felt today. The other bad thing was I had needed to walk an hour to go to my uncle’s house. I stayed in Benidorm. for about one week but I didn’t buy a lot of things because prices were more expensive that in Madrid. I hope to have more luck next time I go to Benidorm.
The summer of 2005 I went with my family to Vera. When I arrived, I thought that this trip would be boring, because I had no friends in the resort and would have to be always with my parents. The first days I just went down to the beach with my parents and later we went to the pool. One day I met a friend and then my opinion on that site change. From that moment everything was more fun, every day we played paddle, we went to the pool, cinema and the night we met more people who were on the beach. In my opinion, I think Vera has been one of the best places I have gone for the summer and I hope that is going many more years.
LONDON One month ago I went to London. London is a beautiful city where you can see a lot of things. The most important places to visit are The British Museum, The Nacional Galery, Buckingham Palace, The Big Ben. You can go to a big sports shop called Lilywhite in Oxford circus, is enormous shop with a lot of known firms and very cheap. If you are lucky and you have sun you can go to High Park to sunbathe. The bets places for eat are the pubs but you have to be careful because they close soon the restaurants. Another place to see is the Tower of London, is like a castle where is the Crown Jewels. Definitively London is a beautiful place to visit. Alejandro.
The last time i've traveled i went to Segovia. I went to a cottage with my family and some friends of my father. The cottage was a very beautiful house in the village called Peñarrubias.
Peñarrubias is a very little village lost in the middle of the mountains. It has only nine people living in there all the year.Also, near the village there is a river where you can swim if you want.
We couldn't do almost no activities abroad because it rained a lot. Anyway i enjoyed Segovia and i hope to return soon.
Lisboa The last summer I went to Lisboa, a very nice city and a good place to visit on holiday. The best of the city was the price of food, it was very good and cheap.I visited the Da Luz Stadium, the Da Pena´s Palace and Casino Estoril. I didn´t like the behavior of the Portuguese. They were very rude and dirty. I went to Fatima too.A very nice and emotional place.it´s left me good memories. In short, I thing that Lisboa is a beautiful place and I recommend to visit Fatima.

I was in Paris las summer with my perents and my sister. I visit the Eiffel tower, the Louvre, the arch of triomph and the Sena river. we stayed in Paris five days in Paris and the other two days we went to Disney because my sister wanted to it.
We passed a very good time above all in Disney bescause at the beginning my sister wanted photos with all the person that was disguised but when we went to the first person she started to cry and me had to take the photo with my sister and the boy, but in Paris we had a very good time because we visited almost all the city and the place that I prefer is the Notre Dame because it's very beautiful and I have always wanted to visit it because one of my favourite films when I was young was "el jorobado de notre dame".
To sum up I recommended all the people that visit this city
galicia I was in Galicia with my family in august of 2008. Exactly we were in Ferrol in a hotel but we did a tour in Galicia. We went to La Coruña, Santiago and many little villages of the comunity. By the way, the La Coruña's promenade is fantastic. Because of La Coruña is a city with beach, we ate very good there. Also, you can buy many things and clothes in their good stores. The most important place of Santiago is the cathedral. The weather was very good and we had a good time. In conclusion, Galicia is very nice and it was perfect. Javier Montes Pineda.
The last trip I went on was to Brussels, Belgium. I went there with some friends for two days. I must say that as a city, it was pretty with its Gothic style architecture, especially in the main square. It seemed touristic as well, most likely due to the fact that it is the home of the European Commission. A lot of the information was in English.
I was most excited to eat a lot of chocolate! As you may know, Belgium is famous for its chocolate. Being there during Easter was also a special experience because there were chocolate bunnies in the shop windows (not to mention a big dish of free chocolate eggs in the hotel lobby).
Near the center of the city is another plaza with a huge clock on the wall. There is a figure for each hour and a giant man on top of the clock to toll the bell every hour. We actually waited there for 15 minutes just to see what happened at the hour on the dot. We left a little disappointed, but had a good laugh about it later.
Another disappointment was the Manneken Pis, a little (VERY little statue) perched on a fountain, obviously peeing. The people had warned me that is wasn't very big, but we thought the chocolate models of the statue were better than the actual one.
One highlight of the trip was the exhibition on Frida Kahlo. They had a special temporary show of 20 of her famous paintings from Mexico on display. They spoke about her troubling life and how it was reflected by her artwork. This is a must-see if you will be there in the next few months.
In conclusion, Brussels is worth visiting, but if you go, I would suggest taking a day trip somewhere else as well, for example, to Brugge. Cheers!
Málaga, city of artists, tourism, and music. I had lived there for a few years, in a little house lost in the streets.
I keep good memories of the boardwalk, beaches, and the sun. During my stay in Málaga, I could learnt about the life of the great artist Pablo Ruiz Picasso; visit an ancient castle, or Las Nieves natural park.
I enjoyed the gastronomy at dinner on the terraces,where I could sample a wide variety of fish dishes.
But the best memories I have of the city are the long afternoons that I spent swimming in the sea.
So, in conclusion, Malaga is a great place to live, travel, or whatever you want to enjoy one of the most beautiful cities in Andalucia.
Two years ago I went on a trip to France with my family. We travelled by car along the east coast to Paris. We stopped at Dune Pilat, a 100 metres high mountain of sand where you could see tens of people rolling down the beach.It was awesome. We visited Loire Valley. It is full of castles decorated as in the past and with long gardens at the front. We really enjoyed it. But actually the place I liked the most was Mont Sait Michel.It is an island with rocky houses and and a cathedral at the top. It takes a long time to get up there but the landscape is worth it. However what really makes it an amazing place are the tides. Twice a day the tide rises and isolates the island from the earth. You must be carefull because once you are in you can´t leave the island until the tide goes down again. And watch not to be closed to the island because the tide comes in at a horse speed.Most beautiful pictures are taken from out of the island because it seems it comes up out of the sea. Finally,we arrived to Paris,that is by now my favourite city. And that was our trip. I wouldn´t mind to repeat it again.
Last time I was out of Spain I traveled to Malta. This little country consists of three islands located in the Mediterranean Sea, where you can realize the British influence. It is strange to see a city full of people that look like Italians speaking English, paying with Maltese pounds and driving on the left side of the road.
But Malta is much more than a country full of red telephone kiosk. The capital city, Valletta, is very beautiful, it is all surrounded by big walls and the sea. At the entrance of its harbour there are two towers, one on each side, that allow closing the port with a chain. Apart of this port my favorite was a yacht club with some of the biggest sailing boats that I have ever seen in my life.
Malta also has many natural beautiful places. My favorite one was the Blue Grotto. It consist in a group of maritime caves at the end of a cliff where the water is completely blue, even if you put your hand into the water it seems blue!
To sum up, Malta is a wonderful place to visit but there is not any place like Spain.
I was in Asturias with my family in August. We went in the Arriondas and we saw the descent of the river of Arriondas to Ribadesella. It was impresive to see. I visit the lake of the Covadonga and it was very foggy and we could not see her well. We were in the beach though the water was very could. The people were very nice and they showed his city and his gastronomy to us. Definitively Asturias is a beautiful and he eats very well.
THE SPANISH COAST In summer I always go to the beach. I go to different beaches, for example this summer I have gone to Sanxenxo, the summer of 2007 I went to Cadiz. I go where my mother says. When I go to the seaside, I stay all the time in the beach because I like so much the sea. I like swim in to the sea and dive. I´ve tried a lot of seas and all seas are amazing but I especially like Cantabrian Sea, because the water is cold and the animals are more varied. I don’t like the sun, because I get very dark and my mother chasing me with the bottle of sunscreen in her hands trying to get in my nose. In conclusion, the holidays without parents were better. Javier Carmena Martínez
Last summer I was in Panama spending sometimes with my family that lives over there. I went to the beach and i spend a lot of time playing basketball and at the bowlling alley. I also visited a lot of monuments and interesting things over there like the "Canal de Panama", and "El valle" at the outsides of Panama. The highlight of he trip was getting to see all my cousins,uncles,aunts and grandparents while I was over there. In conclusion, Panama is a beautiful place and I can't wait to go back. I recommend everyone to go over there, at least ones on their life.

they think without fear of what people would think), have a milkshake on the
Sony Center, go to the Reichstag Dome, or simply walk through Brandembourg's
Gate.
A very funny thing I found when I arrived was the little man of the traffic
lights .On the West side of Berlin it's like the green and red man of Spain,
but on the East side of the city they have very different shape and germans
are very proud of it. There is an "Ampelman" store in Berlin. That really
impressed me!
To sum up, I think Berlin it's a city with a lot of culture to learn, a lot
of people to meet, but, specially, it's a place where you can have a lot of

London is a beautiful city where you can see a lot of things. The most important places to visit are The British Museum, The Nacional Galery, Buckingham Palace, The Big Ben.
You can go to a big sports shop called Lilywhite in Oxford circus, is enormous shop with a lot of known firms and very cheap.
If you are lucky and you have sun you can go to High Park to sunbathe.
The bets places for eat are the pubs but you have to be careful because they close soon the restaurants.
Another place to see is the Tower of London, is like a castle where is the Crown Jewels.
Definitively London is a beautiful place to visit.
