"I like Valencia because there the old takes live with the modern, this is strange and beautiful at the same time.
The sun always shine and you may swim, the sea is very close. At the beginning we did not want to study after a hard year of work, but classes were very interesting and I never got bored. Teachers love their job and tried to make things attractive. The school organizes parties and you can take dancing classes. I brought from Valencia god memories and I will definitely go back."
