Date
September 23, 2019
Last week, we had the Orientation Week for our just arrived students of Fall 2019!!
Today starts the Catalan intensive week class and UPF courses, and next Monday the Arcadia courses.
During these days of orientation, our students have been given all types of useful information that will help them during their time abroad. They've learned about the Catalans and Spaniards everyday lifestyle, safety in Barcelona, and housing. Also the have received information about the neighborhood, where our center in Barcelona and the students' apartments are located “the Eixample”.
Among so much information, we also had time to have fun! We toured around the Gothic Quarter, students were able to know more about Barcelona since the beginning with the romans until medieval times.They also had the chance to try our famous Churros con Chocolate! –typical during this upcoming season because it’s hot and keeps the body warm =)
This Friday as the last activity on the Orientation Program we will have a tour around the city by bus, stopping at some of the most famous landmarks (La Sagrada Família, Eixample, Montjuic).
Now, our students have all the tools and are prepared to enjoy a great semester in this beautiful city! They are ready to start their adventures in Barcelona!
