River Douro

Today we went to a beautiful beach near river Douro in Gondomar that belongs to the municipality of Porto. It was such a hot day, but sadly we coudn't go into the water because we had still a little cough after swimming in the Ocean last week☺We went on a long walk by the river and enjoyed the nature around us. After we drank cold lemonade with our hosts in a bar near the beach. When we were going back home, we stopped to see the organization that Carlos volonteers to. He showed us everything, the training room, the office... He gave us a lot of gifts from the organization.

At 12:30 pm our driver was waiting for us in front of our apartment. He doesn´t speak english so the only words we spoke with him were "bom dia" which means good morning and "obrigada" which means thank you :). We arrived at school at lunch time so we had a big, delacious meal and went for our english class. At the english class everybody introduced themselfes to us and we introduced ourselfes to them. We played interesting games and learned useful things in english. After english lessons we had jewelry class that was amazing, the teacher taught us how to make a wire!

First day in Porto

On our first day in Porto we met Marta. She took us to one of the best chinese restaurant, then we went on a walk to the city centere with our polish teacher and explored the city. After a long walk Carlos took us to the Atlantic Ocean! It was amazing, we had a nice weather and saw huge waves and palm trees. We thought that after seeing the ocean we are going home, but Carlos took us to a beautiful spot where we had a breathtaking panoramic view of Porto and the Douro river. Carlos spontaniously decided to take us shopping and then eat pizza at Pizza Hut! It was a exhausting day but satisfying.
