Erasmus+ Staff Mobility for Training at ESADA, from April 22nd to 26th, 2024.

Upon my initial arrival in Granada, I was warmly welcomed by Félix Guerrero, marking an excellent start to my visit. This initial warmth set the tone for the gracious hospitality I experienced throughout my stay, making me feel instantly at home despite being miles away from familiar surroundings.

During the campus tour, I had the pleasure of meeting various faculty members, notably Fernando Ortega and Carmen Gómez, who were exceptionally welcoming. Exploring the university's main and auxiliary buildings gave me a deeper insight into the educational environment and facilities at ESADA.

The Erasmus+ program was distinguished by the warmth of the ESADA staff, who treated us as if we were part of their own families. Daily, they served beautiful meals that showcased the exquisite cuisine of Granada and Spain, a level of hospitality that was truly surprising and deeply appreciated.

On the second day, we embarked on a guided tour of Granada with other Erasmus participants. We explored the city's rich history, visiting landmarks such as the Alhambra, Granada Cathedral, and significant sites from the Islamic period in Spain. The tour extended into the evening, ending with a delightful group dinner that facilitated further bonding and cultural exchange among participants.

Subsequent days were filled with a series of workshops and engaging activities, each offering a unique blend of learning and fun. These experiences were invaluable, allowing me to observe firsthand the impressive student-teacher dynamics at ESADA, which fostered a nurturing educational atmosphere.

A standout aspect of my stay was the support provided by Ada Martinez from the administration team. She was immensely helpful both on and off campus, ensuring that all my needs were met with great care and attention.

In conclusion, my participation in the Erasmus+ program at ESADA University was an enriching and enlightening experience. Although it was my first time participating in such a program in Europe, I felt a profound sense of belonging and comfort, akin to being with family. I eagerly anticipate another opportunity to revisit ESADA University, to reconnect with the wonderful people I met, and to express my gratitude for their exceptional hospitality.
