Culture and activities by Bianca

Hey there,
I’m one of the german students and I liked to stay in Vigo so much. And I think one of the facts why I liked it, was my lovely hostfamily. My exchange student and me we talked a lot with each other and I got to know her and her family better. Now we became friends.
The culture in Vigo was just a little bit different to my home, so it wasn’t really a big change. They just had other times to eat dinner and to go to sleep or to get up in the morning.
One thing I really liked was the food because it is really different to that what I knew. They had lots of things with puff paste and it tasted very good.
In the art project we designed a wall with graffiti. It made fun to spray on the wall. 
The rest oft the activities was so nice. We were on the isle “Illa do medio ou do faro“. It was so nice, because the nature on the isle was so beautiful and the weather was so good, so in the end we were layning on the beach. I got a sunburn in my face… 
Also we watched a lot parts of the city. On every third house was a special painting and that looked so cool. I wish we would have this at home too.
 
In the end I can say that the experience was great and I’m so happy that I’ve done this exchange. ~Bianca

The week from the 17th to the 24th of March (The German students come to Spain) by Rachel

I have to say it was tough at first because I am not used to sleep with someone near me, except from my sister or some friend but always for less than a week. It was a very exhausting week, we did a lot of things and we had so much fun, even when the situation was a little bit awkward because we didn't knew each other very well, even between us (the galician students). On the first day I had to take Maike to a chemistry lesson in the afternoon but we skipped the second one and we went with other exchange students to Castrelos and later Maike came training with me. On the second day we went to the Cíes Islands and we even got into the water, we ended very tired of walking. On the third day some of us met to go to the shops street at the city centre and to the old part of the city, then Maike and I went training. On the fourth day most of us went eating together to the mall and then went to the Castro. There we took a lot of pictures and we were listeni...

Vigo- Erasmus- Exchange 04.04.17 We went to the beach in the afternoon on Tuesday. There we got paired in groups in which German and Spanish students were mixed together. We got the order to build octopuses made of sand. My group started to get water from the ocean to tighten the sand we would use to build the octopus. We build a big sandheap as a basis for the following details. Afterwards we divided our group into smaller groups and gave different tasks away. I was suppossed to form the tentacles with other group members. Another group started to smoothen the surface of the sandheap and another one tried to give the octopus some characteristics by creating a beautiful face. It took us some time to create the perfect octopus. After some hours all the groups had to finish their work so we would able to admire the sand sculptures we created. The press visited us at the beach and five of us got interviewed about our exchange in Spain with Erasmus+ and what we e...
