Hola amigos!
 |
| a lot of luggage haha |
Before
we’re going to write about all our experiences in Spain, we want to tell you
something about how the travelling to Spain was. It’s already been more than a
month ago, but still we would like to share this adventure with you.
The day
before the big journey began we were sooo nervous! I think I slept for about 3
hours that night. Such a shame the alarm clock already rang at 5 in the
morning. Since we live in the east of the Netherlands, we still had to travel
for about 2 hours to get to Schiphol airport in Amsterdam.

| goodbye mom |
Once we
came there, everything got on fine. We were there on time and there was luckily
not a long queue for the check-in counter. But then there suddenly was a
problem with the suitcases. The travelling agency said to us we could bring a
total of 56 kilo, but then the lady from the counter suddenly said we could
only bring 30 kilo, very weird. First she said we had to lose all the luggage
above the 30 kilo, but that was definitely not possible since I was already struggling
with the 56 kilo the night before. But thank God, after some phone calls she
was prepared to make an exception for us. So luckily we could just bring all
our belongings to Spain! After this suitcase disaster it was finally time to
say goodbye to our parents, not a nice moment of course, but we just had to go.

| up in the air! |
After
that the real adventure finally began! Our first flight was to Barcelona and
the second one from Barcelona to Oviedo. All the flights were fine and in
Barcelona we decided to immediately act like real Spaniards, so we ate 2 very
big lunches ;)
The
arrival was so much fun, I immediately saw everyone standing there with very
cute signs saying: ‘Welcome Roos!’ and ‘Welcome Marieke!’. Everyone was very
welcoming and so nice to us! The first time I was sitting in the car with my
host family felt a bit weird of course, since I never met them before that day.
But that awkward feeling disappeared so fast, since they were so nice to me.
The ride to Oviedo was very good and I fell in love with all the mountains. The
landscape is so different from the Netherlands!
So this
is how our big adventure began, continue reading our blog to read about our
experiences and differences between Spain and Holland :)
Hasta Luego,
Roos
