CATALANS
IN MADRID
From my point of view, this journey
has been the best trip, at least until the moment. On the one hand, because it
has been the furthest. And on the other hand, we have gone with our friends, so
we have been living together during exactly four days. Now, I will explain you
about this great experience (what we did; where we ate and slept; or how we went to the places, on foot, in public
transport…)
Firstly, the residence where we stayed
in Alcobendas is OK, so that’s a posh area. In fact, I knew that it was a rich
zone, although I believed that we would be in a worse school, so I was surprised
by the rooms. In spite of that, I didn’t love the food.
Secondly,
we had to walk when we wanted to go to another monument or museum. If you want
to visit whatever, either a capital or a town, you will have to walk. This is
the best form to know a city.
Talking about cities, Madrid is a
touristic city. The Spanish capital is very clean and there are districts like
“El Barrio de las Musas” where the architecture is well kept. We visited El
Escorial, Prado, Plaza Mayor, Palacio Real, Parque del Retiro, Plaza del Sol,
Santiago Bernabéu, Almudena, Segovia and more. However, we
couldn’t see Reina Sofía, so we couldn’t see Guernica. What a pity!
Personally, I think that this
experience will be in our memories for all our life. In my opinion, we have
learnt what’s to be independent and what’s to live alone. To sum up, I enjoyed
a lot in Madrid.
