After almost twenty years working as a teacher at dons Quijote Barcelona, what stands out is having been in contact with so many people of different ages, countries and cultures. For the majority of this period, I led the cultural tours and excursions where I showed them the best of our history, art and culture. All of this has been a positive and mutally enriching experience and has given me a broader and more realistic view of the world that’s around us.
