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 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.
Day 6 Today was the last full day of our exchange and emotions are high. Everyone has a feeling of pride and accomplishment in the work that we have achieved and so today we used our time to work on our Youth pass. Afterwards we went around the circle and made our comments about the performance and about the exchange. It was a very emotional conversation so to liven the mood we went in a circle complementing eachother. Its amazing to see how people can create such a strong bond in such a short time. Tonight we will have our going away party and at 7:30 tomorrow morning we will say goodbye to Ezcaray and make our journeys back home.
