Living in Spain for a Year as a Language Assistant (Girona) - Meddeas
Apply now through
My name is Shane and I am an American from Chicago (a place with almost no similarities to Spain). I finished college in 2016 and I didn’t want to jump right into the crazy American working world. Living in Spain for a year seemed like a much better option!
What I was doing while living in Spain?
This academic year I lived in Girona, Spain. Girona is 70 kilometers from Barcelona, 40 kilometers from Costa Brava, and 200 km from the Pyrenees mountain range. Girona has the best restaurant in the world, numerous historical sites and absolutely charming people.
During the week, I was speaking English to primary students in Colegio Bell-Lloc. Students would come to my office and I would help them learn English. I focused on verb tenses, pronunciation and basic grammar. This is the “work” portion of the program (although it never felt like work). I taught exclusively in groups of two students for a maximum of fifteen minutes. The kids loved coming to see me and I loved being able to help them.
When the weekend came, I explored Spain. Meddeas provides a grant to live in Spain that allows us to explore the country while we are not teaching English. I often found myself at a beach, on a mountain or in a city!
Girona and the Pyrenees Mountains
Girona provides dozens of buses that go to Costa Brava. Costa Brava is the coastal region of Catalunya that stretches 60 km until France. The coast is a wonderful place to escape to if you ever feel the need to get away from the city life.
The Pyrenees Mountains are only a 90-minute drive away from Girona. If you enjoy skiing or snowboarding, this is the place for you! My host family and I went on a four-day skiing trip that I will never forget. For the first time in my life, I dealt with being too warm while I was snowboarding! (The majority of ski resorts have student discounts that I recommend taking full advantage of)
Sports in Madrid and Barcelona
If you like to exercise, you will love Spain. Even in bigger cities like Barcelona and Madrid, exercising is no problem. In Barcelona, I recommend running/walking along the water or going to Parque de Cuitadella. In Madrid, Parque de El Retiro will take your breath away!
Barcelona and Madrid are incredible cities. A lot of Spanish people prefer one city to the other. This is partially due to the massive rivalry between the cities two football clubs and political issues. However, while you are in Spain, try to visit both cities. You won't regret it!
International Traveling from Spain
Another luxury about living in Spain is being able to travel to other countries. While in Spain, I traveled to Rome, Amsterdam, Paris and Ireland. The public transportation in Europe is inexpensive and easy to maneuver! I loved each city but I was always excited to return to beautiful Spain!
I could have written a whole book about my time spent in Spain. Instead, I decided to make a video!
I must admit that I am not a big fan of pictures. In fact, I despise them. Family pictures, posing for pictures, looking at pictures and taking pictures. “Everybody say cheese! ”. I’d rather not! I prefer keeping the memories in my head and saving them for a later time. Video, on the other hand, is something that interests me. Videos reveal more information than pictures and generally leave the viewers more satisfied. My mother, like most mothers, was extremely curious about her son’s new life in Spain. I could have sent her 1000 pictures and she still would have had more questions for me.
The main reason I made this video was to get young people like me to live in Spain for one year. Moving to Spain or taking a trip to a new place with new people can, and most likely will, change your life. Anyone with an open-mind and a passion for helping people would enjoy this experience. I also made this video to get my lovely mom to stop worrying about what I was up to!

Places To Visit In Costa Brava: Tossa de mar, Blanes, Empuriabrava
Places To Visit In Costa Brava-Tossa de mar-Blanes-Empuriabrava
The Costa Brava is one of the most beautiful areas of Catalonia and probably the whole of Spain. Its coast is lapped by the crystal waters of the Mediterranean and its interior overlooked by the spectacular and mighty Pyrenees.
The Costa Brava is a 160-kilometre stretch of beautiful, rugged coastline in the region of Catalonia in the North East corner of Spain. Natural beauty, endless miles of sandy beaches and summer sunshine. You'll find modern, international tourist resorts with high-rise hotels alongside unspoilt fishing villages, sheltered rocky coves and medieval towns with ancient castles. The Costa stretches from Blanes, North of Barcelona, to Roses near the French border.
TOSSA DE MAR:
Tossa de Mar is a municipality belonging to the county of La Selva, in the province of Girona, on the Costa Brava so this is a perfect place to enjoy its beaches.In the bay of Tossa is a small promontory on the beach, in which a medieval walled city lies, called the Vila Vella, who has seven round towers. Its origin is estimated in the twelfth century and was built to prevent pirate attacks. Inside are the remains of a church and the palace of the governor of the XIV century.
A dozen fine beaches and bays (most notably Platja Gran, Mar Menuda and Cala Giverola) and the imposing Cadiretes massif, ideal for exploring on foot or by mountain bike, make up the privileged natural surroundings of Tossa de Mar. The historic centre of the village is dominated by a towering 12th century wall which encircles the quiet streets and the seafaring atmosphere of the Vila Vella.
Imagine a place where you can travel in time back to a former age…Tossa is a real open-air museum where prehistoric remains overlap with Roman Túrissa, medieval Tursa and today's Tossa, one-time retreat for artists and intellectuals and now host town for tourists and visitors.This heritage gives evidence of all those people who loved this piece of land and made it their home, from now on also yours.
BLANES:
Just 60 km north of Barcelona, Blanes extends for 4km along the stunning south coastline of the COSTA BRAVA. Rich with long sweeping sandy bays, little rocky coves, or deserted bays... If you like the wonders of nature Blanes has a perfect combination of nature, climatic conditions and topographical feature. The Mediterranean town of Blanes is a popular tourist hot spot for Spanish holiday makers, as well as those from other European nations. Blanes also prides itself in offering its visitors a taste of real Spain, with traditional fiestas & street, as well as the vibrant family friendly atmosphere with attractive parks and flower beds throughout the town. The nicest and most enchanting beaches you will find lie on the Costa Brava!! Beaches here have been awarded the European Blue Flag for cleanliness and clarity of water for several years running.The weather is in the main welcoming all year round. With average highs of 31°C in the summer months & 16°C in the winter, it is possible to enjoy an outdoor life at any time of the year. However be aware during the winter season low temperatures can be a good deal cooler than in Spain's southern regions.
EMPURIABRAVA
Empuriabrava (Ampuriabrava in Spanish) is one of the most unusual towns along the Costa Brava.Sporting nearly 24 kilometers (15 miles)1 of canals, and 5,000 private jetties, Empuriabrava is the largest residential marina in the world. They call itself “the largest Marina in the world “, an area with more water ways than even Venice. Whether this is a fact remains to be proved. Empuriabrava, however, has an immense number of canals, where boat owners have their own private moorings in front of their houses.Empuriabrava was built on a swamp in 1968 (at that time still Ampuriabrava). Today the place covers an area of over 503 hectares, about 10 % of the total area are canals or port, and this probably counts primarily for the popularity of the resort. From the tiniest boat to the biggest cruising yacht, everything can be found here.

Costa Brava 2017 We go from Barcelona to Blanes
The #Costa #Brava Wild or Rough Coast is a coastal region of Catalonia in northeastern Spain, consisting of the comarques (counties) of Alt Empordà, Baix Empordà and Selva in the province of Girona. Costa Brava stretches from the town of Blanes, 60 km (37 mi) northeast of Barcelona, to the French border. In the 1950s, the Costa Brava was identified by the Spanish government and local entrepreneurs as being suitable for substantial development as a holiday destination, mainly for package holiday tourists from France and Northern Europe. The combination of a very good summer climate, nature, excellent beaches and a favourable foreign exchange rate, which made Costa Brava a relatively inexpensive tourist destination, was exploited by the construction of large numbers of hotels and apartments in such seaside resorts as Blanes, Tossa de Mar and Lloret de Mar. Tourism rapidly took over from fishing as the principal business of the area.
The coast was named Costa Brava by Ferran Agulló (in Catalan, Ferran Agulló i Vidal) in an article published in the Catalan newspaper La Veu de Catalunya in September 1908. Agulló, a journalist born in Girona, referred to the rugged landscape of the Mediterranean coast which runs from the River Tordera, near Blanes, to Banyuls with the name Costa Brava. Costa is the Catalan and Spanish word for 'coast', while Brava means 'rugged' or 'wild'. This term was officially recognized and promoted in the 1960s as it was deemed suitable to promote tourism in the region. Before Costa Brava became the official name, other names were suggested, such as Costa Grega (Greek Coast), Costa del Corall (Coral Coast), Costa Serena (Serene Coast), Costes de Llevant (Levant Coasts) or Marina de l'Empordà (Empordà Marine).
It may or may not be a coincidence that the name Costa Brava resembles Costa Blava (the Catalan designation of the French Riviera), which is a literal translation of the Spanish Costa Azul (Blue Coast). This in turn is a not-quite-literal translation of the French Côte d'Azur (Azure Coast); azul has the same etymology as azur, but it is the general Spanish term for blue, not specifically azure. A direct translation from French to Catalan would have yielded Costa d'Atzur.
