When we arrived in Porto, Portugal, we were astonished by how interesting it was. Even when driving around, we could see so many centuries coming together to form Porto’s architecture.

For the next few days, we got to know our host families and the students from other countries – Germany, Poland and of course Portugal. We were pretty close, as you can see.

We had a few workshops which were very fun to attend, and we learned a lot. One of our German friends was a talented singer, attending many competitions in Germany. She was kind enough to sing in the music workshop where we went to a studio.

The other workshops included photoshopping (so we took pictures), sound editing (so we recorded sounds) and dancing – but we were much too tired to take photos of the dancing workshop!

IPTA (the school hosting us in Portugal) was kind enough to arrange a walk around Porto for us, followed by a boat-ride along the channel and some great-quality wine tasting.
