After a flight with Ryan Air we landed in Barcelona Girona Airport from where it were another 40 km by bus to Lloret de Mar where we would be staying for the entire week.
It was our first high school trip abroad and everybody was really excited about sharing a hotel room and of course going clubbing in Lloret de Mar.
Our teachers were really cool and we had a...
You can not visit Barcelona without getting a tour at the stadium of FC Barcelona, the number one attraction of this beautiful city. Of course you can hit the beach, admire the works of Gaudi but this place is just as sacred as La Sagrada Familia.
We bought tickets for a tour around the stadium which included a visit to the soccer teams museum, the FC Barcelona Museum.

April is still a cool tempature only a 20 minute sprinkle...
I've on a cultural trip to Granada where we stayed a week in the heart of Granada's oldest quarter, Albayzin. I travelled to Granada with my classmates as the trip was part of field trip.
We stayed at the White Nest Hostel which was so nice and colourful plus the location couldn't be better for local sightseeing. The hostel wasn't far to bus and train services either.
In total we stayed 7 days at the White Nest Hostel and had a great time. Albayzin is known for its narrow streets, pittoresque houses and of course the Alhambra Palace which reminds us of the Moorish, the historic...
