Day 5  Today we woke up and got on the bus to Logroño to get to know our location and to explore the town. We were divided into groups with people from each country in the groups and we were given a map and a list of places to go in Logroño. In each location we were given a word to inspire a photo to be taken there. This was such a fun way to explore the city and it was also the perfect excuse to take fun photos together so that we will remember this trip forever. Before the performance began we did the excerise that we had done on the first day where we looked into eachothers eyes and hugged. It was very emotional this time because our time is nearly up and we have all become so close. However, the sad mood quickly left us all when we started to play warm up games for the performance and people from the street even joined us in our games! We had so much energy for the performance and we really felt that the audience got our message and it had its effect.

Day 1 Today we woke up from our cosy beds in time for breakfast at 9am and began our first workshop at 10am. We started the day with some icebreakers to build our trust in eachother.   Our first activity was to go to the untouched section of the snow and the objective was to be with yourself and create an image to be seen from above. However, when we began, naturally we started to play instead, which resulted in a snow battle. Afterwords we discussed the metaphor that the activity represented, which was really insightful to see the perspective of others.

We continued the day by starting a discussion about our definitions of gender. We were parted into 4 groups and each group had to write words related to topic words such as "gender" and "masculine".

 Day 2  So today we got up early for breakfast at about 8 am. The Germans hosted workshops, the first one was fun because we were dancing and singing. It was great craic. The second one was an intense movement workshop about gender identity. Everybody devised a movement piece, they were all very impressive. Then we tried to go into the town in the afternoon, but all the shops were closed. The town was beautiful, it was like something lovely out of a storybook. We tried to find somewhere to get hot chocolate but to no avail. We then went into groups to start rehearsing for our street performance on Friday. I loved the energy my group had and I like everything we have done so far. We had to dance in a feminine and provocative way. This week so far has been a great experience. I have never even left my town and now I am up in the mountains in Spain. I have never experienced anything like it before.
