Spain
LMC Computer Lab to look for flights.
First look at a map of Spain and see where your autonomous community is located and find major city/cities in it or in nearby communities. Go to Orbitz. Expedia or similar sites and look at flights. YOu'll stay a week. This isn't a fantasy trip so you do want a reasonable fare. But look at the total flight time beacuse you don't want to spend 36 to 50 hours of your 1 week in airports! You will learn about entering the EU, options you have for your trip, such as flying into another city and taking EasyJet, Ryanair or similar European airlines or trains and busses to your destination.
This flight finding info is for you to experience making travel plans and is not to be part of your presentation. When you finish, start learning about your comunidad.
