My 1st Day of School as a Teacher in Sant Cugat, Spain | Filicanish Vlog Novela Numero Diez
After two months off between jobs, it's my first day back at work at a new job. I'm half way across the world from San Diego in Barcelona, Spain starting my new career as an English Teacher.
We travel on the train 30 minutes up to Sant Cugat where I start my first day of School at Ciutat D'Alba teaching kids English at this Elementary School.
A little worried, because I had no communication with my Coordinator, I went to the school not knowing what to expect. It turns out everything was fine and I find it very rewarding to teach kids a foreign language!
After school is out, I head over to the famous Sagrada Familia where I meet up my friend Patrick. We take some pics, head to lunch and things start to make a turn for the worst.
I end up with food poisoning later that night and the vlog does down with me!
Before that, we make it up to Parc Güell for some of the most beautiful views in all of Barcelona. We meet an old friend at the top of the Parc and explore this beautiful parc on top of a hill which was designed by Antoni Gaudi!

Plaça de Catalunya - Barcelona
Die Plaça de Catalunya (oder Katalonienplatz) ist ein Platz im Zentrum Barcelonas. Da er das Bindeglied zwischen der Altstadt (Barri Gòtic) und der Neustadt (Eixample) darstellt, nimmt er eine zentrale Rolle ein und wird von den Einwohnern dieser Stadt und ihrer Umgebung als das Zentrum Barcelonas betrachtet. Charakteristisch für diesen Platz ist sein als sternförmige Figur aus blauen, roten und grauen Fliesen gestalteter Untergrund und die Verkehrslärm abschirmende Bepflanzung mit Springbrunnen, die den Platz umgibt.
Angrenzende Straßen und Gebäude
In südöstlicher Richtung wird die Plaça de Catalunya durch die Promenade Les Rambles mit dem ehemaligen Hafen verbunden. Am linken Rand des Mittelstreifens der Rambles befindet sich die Font de Canaletes, ein gusseiserner Trinkwasserspender, dem nachgesagt wird, dass jeder, der daraus trinkt, nach Barcelona zurückkehren wird.
Die Carrer de Pelai zweigt an der Ecke Rambles in Richtung der Plaça de l’Universitat ab, hier befindet sich das Shopping-Center El Triangle mit den Dépendancen von Massimo Dutti, Sephora und fnac.
An der nordwestlichen Seite führt der Passeig de Gràcia zum alten Ortskern des Stadtteils Gràcia. Es handelt sich um eine breite Prachtstraße, in der sich neben anderen architektonischen Sehenswürdigkeiten auch die Casa Milà und die Casa Batlló, zwei wichtige Werke von Antoni Gaudí, finden.
Zwei der von der Plaça de Catalunya abzweigenden Straßen heißen „Ronda“ – die Ronda de Sant Pere und die Ronda de la Universitat –, sie sind Teil eines Systems von bogenförmigen, überbezirklichen Verbindungsstraßen, die in immer größeren Abständen um den alten Stadtkern herumführen bis zur äußeren Ronda de Dalt am Fuß des Bergrückens der Serra de Collserola.
Der Platz wird umringt von repräsentativen, majestätischen Bauwerken im neoklassizistischen Stil, die traditionell Banken beherbergten, etwa die Banco Español de Crédito zwischen dem Passeig de Gràcia und der Rambla de Catalunya oder die spanische Nationalbank zwischen den Rambles und der Carrer Portal de l’Àngel. Diese traditionellen Bauwerke waren bereits in den 1960er Jahren auf ihren Dächern mit aufwendiger, prunkvoller Neon-Leuchtreklame ausgestattet.
Eine Ausnahme diese Baustils bildet die am nordöstlichen Rand des Platzes gelegene Filiale der Kaufhauskette El Corte Inglés, das größte innerstädtische Kaufhaus Barcelonas. Das Gebäude ist in Stahlbeton-Verbundbauweise hergestellt. Es erstreckte sich anfangs nur über einen Teil dieser Seite des Platzes, expandierte dann auf seiner Rückseite zu einem weiteren Grundstück an der Ronda de Sant Pere und schaffte es zunächst nicht, beide Kaufhausteile auf der Vorderseite zu verbinden, weil eine große Apotheke auf dem Eck-Grundstück jahrelang einer Übernahme trotzte.
Der Platz gilt als belebt und ist von zahlreichen Geschäften, Restaurants, Bars und Cafés umgeben, die nicht alle eine alte Tradition haben. Eines der ältesten Lokale ist das Café Zurich. Neben dem Corte Inglés befand sich früher eine Piano-Bar, in der sich der Bruder der belgischen Königin Fabiola als Pianist verdingte. Von hier kann man eine Stadtrundfahrt in offenen Bussen beginnen, die 1500 Meter Rambles abwärts bis zum Hafen erkunden oder, wenn man sich links der Rambles hält, im Barri Gòtic durch enge Gassen spazieren, wo sich eine Vielzahl alter Gebäude befinden.
Die Ecke zur Carrer de Pelai ist ein beliebter Treffpunkt für Verabredungen.
Verkehrsknotenpunkt
Zug der Metro am U-Bahnhof
Die Plaça de Catalunya ist ein wichtiger Verkehrsknotenpunkt: oberirdisch für eine Vielzahl von Buslinien und den Pendelbussen zum Flughafen der Stadt, unterirdisch für Metro und Schnellbahn, verteilt auf zwei Ebenen. Zwei der fünf Metrolinien der Stadt (L1 und L3) kreuzen sich unter dem Platz. Diese Station wurde bereits 1924 mit der ersten Metrolinie Barcelonas in Betrieb genommen. Hier beginnen auch zwei Linien der Ferrocarrils de la Generalitat de Catalunya (L6 und L7).
Dieser Verkehrsträger war früher, in der Franco-Zeit und kurz danach, ein privates Unternehmen namens Ferocarriles de Cataluña (seit 1979 Ferrocarrils de la Generalitat de Catalunya) und erschloss durch einen Tunnel unter dem Berg Tibidabo hindurch das Hinterland (Sant Cugat del Vallès, Rubí, Terrassa und Sabadell) bereits Jahrzehnte bevor es gelang, auch einen Straßentunnel unter dem Bergrücken der Serra de Collserola zu bauen. Zusätzlich halten auch einige Regionalzüge der RENFE im unterirdischen Bahnhof.
Der Platz ist auch Ausgangspunkt des Aerobús zum Flughafen Barcelona, der diesen alle 6 bis 15 Minuten anfährt. Der Schnellbus hält noch an weiteren Stationen in der Stadt, z. B. am Passeig de Gràcia, Plaça d’Espanya und an der Sants Estació (Hauptbahnhof). Die Fahrdauer beträgt 35 bis 40 Minuten. Hier treffen sich darüber hinaus die beiden Linien der Stadtrundfahrten, die blaue und die rote Linie.
Seit dem Jahr 2007 befinden sich auch einige öffentliche Fahrradmietstationen auf dem Platz.

RFID cards and apps for activating charge points
I decided to go on another trip to Barcelona to test out various charging points around the city. I wanted to test out activating charge points with RFID cards and applications. I took delivery of a card from Sant Cugat de Vallés which was sent out from the Ajuntament for the town. I got this after trying to use the Barcelona live electric vehicle charge card. That didn’t work and I think it should have. I also think there should be some way for non-residents of the town to pull in and get the charger working. Maybe if there was a notice on the machine which said call into the bar opposite to get a card to use the charging. It would still limit the charger to end the bar was open. Even so, it would be good business for the town. People would be spending money while waiting for their card to charge up. Next time I go there I might even suggest to a bar owner or a restaurant owner nearby to apply for the card.

Places to see in ( Metz - France ) Saint Maximin
Places to see in ( Metz - France ) Saint Maximin
The church Saint - Maximin is a catholic church located near the Lutheran Temple in the district of the Old Town in Metz in Moselle . It is placed under the name of Bishop Maximin of Trier , who died in 347. The Romanesque church is located in the district Outre - Seille , 68 rue Mazelle.
The construction of this church Romanesque dated xii th century xv th century. The choir, the transept and square tower of the xii th century are an important testimony of the Romanesque period. The nave dates from the xv th century. In the southern transept, the chapel of Louve and Gournay dates from 1365, a gift of Poinsignon Dieu Amy. The young Jacques-Benigne Bossuet pronounced on October 24, 1658, one of the first funeral orations, that of Henry de Gournay. A baroque portal replaces in 1753 the first ogival door
The church houses the only known stained glass windows designed by Jean Cocteau; the stained glass windows were put in place at the end of the 1960s according to cartons from 1962. The stained glass work by Jean Cocteau in Metz is undoubtedly his last great masterpiece substantially completed posthumously since died October 11, 1963. It Edouard Dermit , his adopted son who will ensure the full implementation of the project designed by Jean Cocteau.
The most convincing message signified by central stained glass seems to be that of immortality. Obviously, if Cocteau has made the two characters appear so clearly in this axial stained glass (the praying and his double), we can not ignore and ignore the content of their invocation to know the faith in immortality. Moreover, it is this same immortality that any artist seeks through his work whose goal would be to create a work that succeeds him. Jean Cocteau himself, making this last creation the most important before his death, had to think about it all the time. He did not stop his life during his use of mythology and in particular the character of Orphée to bring back to life the dear ones and make them even immortal. Regarding the Orphée filmfrom 1950, it is said in particular in the blog The Eye on the Screen : Jean Cocteau transposes the myth of Orpheus to the present time ... The man is saved, Death dies, it is the myth of immortality. ' .

Listening is a more natural way of learning, when compared to reading. Written language only began at around 3200 BC, but spoken language has existed long ago.
Learning by listening is a great way to:
- increases imagination and understanding
- improves your listening skills
- improves your own spoken accent
- learn while on the move
- reduce eye strain
Now learn the vast amount of general knowledge available on Wikipedia through audio (audio article). You could even learn subconsciously by playing the audio while you are sleeping! If you are planning to listen a lot, you could try using a bone conduction headphone, or a standard speaker instead of an earphone.
