Advent Calendar

    My favourite advent calendar window. Kauzar Bousaida (Melilla, Spain).

    The number one box is my favourite. In this image, we can see a snow-covered landscape that is located in León, Spain.
    In the picture I see a city at night, in which the houses are covered with snow and with the darkness and the lights of the houses. It transmites tranquility and peace of mind. From what I see, since it is winter, the trees have no leaves and it seems that they are old and withered trees.
    In my opinion this is the prettiest box I have seen in the advent calendar.

    My favourite window number 9,because when I´m upset or stressed I like to listen to relaxing music.

    Erika / Pola de Laviana (Spain)

    I have to say that I liked all the windows. The first ones were very educative and the eighth was so useful to learn about pronunciation, something that I´m a little insecure about. It was also so cool to see pictures about our project partners countries! If I have to choose only one, I´d say the tenth. I love Disney and I guessed all the songs!

    Dina (Spain)

    My favorite advent calendar window is number 16.
    In it we can see a landscape where there are very traditional homes where you can breathe a lot of tranquility.
    The landscape is not very bright, there are only 4 street lamps although the view is fantastic since the ground is covered with snow.
    There are also very lush trees around.
    In my opinion the views are wonderful and if I had a chance to go, I would go.
