Experiences by Elena

Textfeld: HAMBURG HAFEN.
These photos are from the day we did a tour of Hamburg by groups. It was a fun day but we ended up very tired. I choose these photos to represent the student role, since that is what taught me the most culturally and how to take me practically alone in a foreign city.
The truth is that you learn a lot with this type of trip and, although at the beginning it is scary to arrive and not know anything, then you do not want to return. Without a doubt an experience that I will never forget and recommend to all those who want to learn.
We had a great time knowing all the corners of the city and in my opinion it is a beautiful and very interesting city, I would go back

Talking on a personal level, it was a trip that made me discover many things, although it can be very little time to do them. At first I arrived with a little fear for not knowing what to do, but the days passed and each time I had less desire to return. What I had was a dream since we were doing activities all day. I loved meeting new people and both the teachers and the German children and families were lovely. I want to see you again someday. I leave you some pictures of a few days that we were all together in the house of a German.

The Rollercoaster The Rollercoaster is a restaurant in the south of Hamburg, southern of the Elbe. The really good and exquisite food comes to your table by rail, after you ordered by tablet. Sometimes even with a sparkler. We went there with 10 persons. Exept from another branch in Dresden, this restaurant is unique. The "Schokofondue" On sunday afternoon, we went to Pauline's to eat the so-called "Schokofontäne". It's a fondue of melted chocolate in form of a fountain, where you dip fruit in. It exploded twice. That was the second time. The first time, we took the tablecloth away, expecting it not to happen again, but... The "Tropenaquarium" Monday, we were at the "Hagenbeck's Tropenaquarium". It's part of the zoo here in Hamburg.  That's Steve. He's a manta ray.

A sunny day in Hamburg Downtown :-D

Hi! We´re Alexandra, Annika, Julia and Natalia. On monday we spent a lovely day in the City Center of Hamburg. First we all went to the International Maritime Museum of Hamburg which was really interesting! We learned a lot of facts about the history of the harbour. After that we walked to the Underground Station "Überseequartier" which is near the museum in the Hafencity. We had lunch at a burger Restaurant named "Jim Block" next to the Gänsemarkt. Everyone ate a huge burger and it was sooo delicious. In the afternoon we were relaxing next to the river Alster and had a Virgin Colada. Afterwords we took a lot of nice pictures in front of the council in the evening light. We went by train to "St.Pauli" and had a short view at the Dom which is an amusemant park in Hamburg. Sadly it first opens on friday the 23rd March. :( Because of that we just walked along the famous street Reeperbahn and saw a outdoor stage where for example the announcement of Germany&#

German chocolate and candy tasting.

On Monday, we tried some different kinds of chocolates and German candy. We went to "Edeka", a German supermarket, to buy them. Tara showed me all the kinds of candy that she likes and are not available in Spain. She told me that her favourite one works as if it was some kind of "drug": the first time it's good, but it doesn't make you addicted. However, the second time you try it, nobody can stop you from eating it all up. Tara was right. Both of us are vegetarian, and it turns out that Germany is "The Vegetarian Paradise" for gummy bear lovers. We had already tried the ones that Tara's parents gave us the previous night, so we bought a different kind. Just after that, we went home and had a nice talk while we were eating all the candy. We did not even realise that we were almost finishing them all; then, Tara's mum called us for dinner, and we were already full (of candy :)). One of Tara's favourite candy is "Knusperflocken&q
