When I was proposed to join Erasmus+ I wasn't sure about it. I've always been a shy girl and I was feeling uncomfortable about living with another family for a week. But then I've decided I needed to live a new experience and this was the best choice of my life. When I left I only knew two of my mates, we weren't close friends but
this opportunity strengthened our bond, and I'm grateful.
Italian Team the day we left:
I really have to spend some words for my precious "hermana" ("sister" in Spanish), Awa. Her family has been so lovely with me and she is one of the best and amazing people I know. I'd never thaught people could be able to become so close in less than a week. Awa is one of the best things ever happened to me, and the guys I've met there are so. I can't explain with words how much those people mean to me, each one of them. Barcelona is such a happy place, everyone is kind and smiling, I fell in love with that city!
Some pictures we took as memories:
I
think a book isn't enough to tell how much this experience changed me
as a person. The most important thing I've learned is to live more and
think less. Life is amazing and we shouldn't be afraid of making new
friends. Barcelona became my second home, and I hardly want to come back
there to all my friends. My house will always be open for them. I will
keep these amazing memories in my heart for the rest of my life, and I
guess every time I'll return to Barcelona I'll feel I'm home. I can't
wait to see them all once again.
Our last day together was so emotional, we cried the whole time.
These are some of the last pictures:

(the next morning, we met for the firewells right before our flights)
LAST BUT NOT LEAST, MY "SISTER" AWA AND I:
"We don't meet people by accident. They are meant to cross our path for a reason."
"It's the friends we meet along life's road who help us appreciate the journey"
"Goodbyes are not forever, are not the end; it simply means I'll miss you until we meet again"
May we meet again, guys, I love you all always and forever...💗
