  • Valencia, Spain

    Valencia, Spain
    My friend and I went on a working holiday around Spain for one month. We started in Valencia. We were able to go and see the America's Cup (a yacht race) and all the yachts. After that we travelled to Órgiva where we picked olives and did farm work in exchange for a room and food. I loved this experience!
  • Puerto de la Cruz, Tenerife

    Puerto de la Cruz, Tenerife
    I went to Tenerife with my family in 2008 for a week's holiday. It was lovely and sunny. Tenerife is one of the Canary Islands that belong to Spain, Whist there I ate lots of tapas and enjoyed the sun. One day we got a train to the Loro Parque which has over 3,500 animals and the worlds largest collection of parrots!
  • Bayeux, France

    Bayeux, France
    I went to Bayeux in France. I took my grandfather to see all the D-Day landing beaches, famous from the second world war. Bayeux itself is very famous, this is where the Bayeux Tapestry is housed. This is a 68 metre embroidered cloth – not an actual tapestry – which depicts the events leading up to the Norman conquest of England

    I went to Berlin to visits friends there and also to go to the Christmas markets (weihnachtsmarkt). I studied German at school so it was great to be able to speak with the locals. The markets were beautiful, lots of nice presents for the family. I went with my mum and sister as a girlie shopping weekend. It was ver, very cold when we were there.
