Andrea from Italy travelling to Portugal

Hello everyone

My name is Andrea and I am 16 years old. I attend the second class of the Istituto Orfini and I live in a small town near Foligno called Spello.

Spello is a medieval little town . It's located on the flank of Mount Subasio and above the plain where is Foligno.

Spello is not well known by tourists, but the visitor is left with the memory of its streets and its monuments. I will tell you of my city very soon

But now let's go back to me.

I am very sociable and friendly.

I like being with friends listening to music and hang out with them for a pizza.

In my free time I like riding a motorbike, my passion, and going swimming.

In the picture I have long hair, but now I cut them short

I like travelling and I am very happy to see Ferreira and Lisbon and to meet

new friends

See you in May

Andrea

This Blog

The project Blog contains everything related to the Comenius project “Let’s Travel!”: summary, objectives, activities, mobilities, project meetings, results, evaluation… It is a visual and dynamic online platform which illustrates and disseminates the project development through regular updating: writings, introductions, descriptions of places, pictures and videos on Tourism as a topic. All outcomes on the Blog are the results of students’ and teachers’ common team work at the seven partner schools.

The Garden in Portugal

Although uncompleted, coordinators from the seven partner schools decided to maintain the Garden in Portugal as one of the most emotive outcomes of our project. Seeds of plants from the local flora in each country were sent to the school in Portugal. Students of Tourism and Gardening from Ferreira do Zêzêre collected and let them germinate. They created a greenhouse, which was unfortunately seriously damaged by a destructive tornado at the beginning of 2011. A big part of the garden got lost.

Evaluation Questionnaires and Power Point Presentation

Three model questionnaires for mobilities were made, separately for guests (teachers and students) and hosts (students). Teachers and students who took part in mobility filled these questionnaires after each meeting and conclusions were compiled by Polish teachers to make our work better and more efficient. The most important conclusions from questionnaires were summed in the Power Point presentation which was presented during the last mobility in Spain, were all coordinators from partner schools were present.

7 Different Kinds of Tourism in 7 Different Countries

The seven partner schools of the Project “Let’s Travel!” did of Tourism a topic to investigate and analyse. They found out the characteristics, the means of transport, the baggage, the accommodation, the duration and the money required for seven different kinds of tourism and tourists in the seven partnership countries. They produced a considerable quantity of documents with information and pictures on activities related to cultural, historical, religious, natural, health, sport and educational tourism.
