Maider and Nerea

Nerea and Maider, two students belonging to Bachillerato, share with us their feelings towards the Christmas time!

The exchanges are coming! We remember when the Polish teachers came to our school in September and now there are two months left to meet you. Time is short! We are very excited about this project because we have never travelled abroad. It will be a new experience to live with other family and to stay in a city where there is nobody who speaks spanish.

Although the weather in Poland is colder than in Barakaldo, If we were you, we could take winter clothes and umbrellas because here it's always raining! It hardly ever snows here but there is no need to snow to feel that we are in Christmas time. We are so excited about the Christmas and New Year's Eve dinners because we haven´t met with our family since a few months ago.

In our city, Barakaldo, there aren't Christmas lights but in Bilbao, the city becomes amazing. The streets are illuminated by colorful lights, specially in Blue Klein. and in front of the historic "heart" of Bilbao (named Casco Viejo) there must be a very beautiful and enormous Christmas tree. We love Christmas time as you have seen...

We wish to be able to go to Poland and enjoy with our exchange´s students. Best wishes for you and merry Christmas!
