First days in Spain

 First blog by Sólveig Hjörleifsdóttir


Hola todos! Today was a good day. The first thing I did was of course waking up. I ate a good breakfast (toast and water) and then me and Ruben walked to the bus station. At the station we met up with Jorge and Nana and then we took the bus to school. At the school there was a welcoming ceremony where we got to meet the rest of the Spanish kids doing the Erasmus project and their Polish partners. After the ceremony we got a tour of the school, which is muy grande. We also visited a museum which is at the university I believe and that was very fun. We learned some new things about math and physics and science which was very cool. After the trip to the museum, the older Erasmus kids went to the mall in Orihuela and we shopped some clothes and had some food. We had a lot of fun together and talked a lot. Then we went back to the school because we were going to be seeing some planets or the staff at the school organized a seeing of the stars and the planets for us. We saw Jupiter, Saturn, and the moon. A very cool and one of a kind experience if i say so myself. I then went to the dentist with Ruben and his mom and after that we went home and ate dinner. I spent the rest of the evening talking with my host family and that was great. They are great.

  1.Accessories The combs are interesting because in those years it was not very important to comb your hair, they found three in a grave. They also found two armbands in the same grave and four decorations buttons These are displayed in the museum because these combs are from a time in which those who had access to the combs were considered high-powered people with a series of privileges that the rest did not have     2. Utensils for preparing food Excavations revealed remains of some dairy products, a milk curd that remains a staple food today. They also found a cooking pot made of stone, two stories and a large stone with a hole in the center. This was placed on the fire and was used to cook the food that was placed on top. They used shells as spoons and scrapers. This is in the museum so that new generations can see the utensils that they used to have for cooking.     3. Brooches They used clover-shaped brooches to hold the clot...

First days in Orihuela

 First blog by Amelia Zarebska We landed in Alicante at 20:00 and had a lot of fun on the airplane. We slept well and played Uno. When we arrived in Orihuela, we went to our family's place which made me a little anxious but very excited. They were all really sweet. When we arrived home, we had dinner and went to sleep.   On the first full day, we went to Alicante. Everyone arrived early except me and Ariandna because we woke up late, so we drove straight to the mall to meet up with the rest of the group. It was very nice to meet everyone.   On Monday, we arrived at school at 8:00. We were welcomed by the school and split into two groups. We had to do some exercises together, the funniest one was when we had to make an animal sound - how it sounds in Spain vs in Iceland. After that, we got a tour of the school and we were all very surprised by how big the school is.   Then, we took a bus to the MUDIC museum. We got a tour of the museum and Jorge translated...

Visiting Spain

 First blog by Victoria Silja Antolek Today I learnt a lot about Spanish culture and differences in between Iceland and Spain. Today we started the day by having some activities in groups where we got to know each other, and then we got to see the school. The school was really big and it was both outside and inside which is much different than Iceland. Then we went to a museum, and it was fun to see. My favourite part was the room with the mirrors. After this we had some free time, so we went to the mall in Orihuela and just walked around, and that was my favourite part. And the last thing today was watching the planets from the telescope, it was really amazing to see the planets.
