LEARNING SPANISH: My Third-Term Experience

Just a little trailer of what’s to come 😄😄😄

[Monday 24th June 2019]

9am......We had a semi early start, packing all the last bits and making sure my Spanish dictionary is on me. We then travelled to Gatwick airport via train. We went through security and sadly had to throw away a few of my liquids 😩😒

(Finally on the plane)

We took off from London at 1:25pm and Landed at Arrecife Airport at 5:40pm,(journey was 4 hours) there isn’t a time difference between London and Lanzarote so there wasn’t any confusion . At the airport is where I was first exposed to some Spanish.... luckily I’ve brushed up on my numbers and how to ask for directions.

We had prepaid for a bus shuttle to our hotel (Arrecife Gran Hotel and Spa), when I asked where to find our shuttle, I was told to find “Parada de autobús cincuenta y dos”, I assumed the woman said we should go to bus stand 52 and I was right 👏🏾👏🏾 [See vídeo for more]

15 mins later we reached our hotel and it looked really tall 😂😂 and luxurious as it should be. We checked in and got our room keys and looked around the hotel. Two words: Absolutely breathtaking!

After all the ooos and the aaass, we went out for dinner and I ordered for ‘tres Salchipapas 🍟 con bebidas 🥤’. It literally only cost €3,99 each 👏🏾

Salchipapas is chips loaded with different sauces, chorizo and grated cheese. ¡Muy delicioso! 🤤

After all of that, my boyfriend (Emmanuel) and I decided to walk along the beach outside the hotel called Playa Del Reducto

We played about in the water and on the sand, eventually we came across some cute Spanish writing in the sand obviously left by another couple and decided to take some pictures with it. Thought it would be nice to share it with you all !
