Hello everyone again!<\/p>\n

Happy March! I’m very happy to say Easter is coming (relatively) soon and that I’ve booked my flights home for that week. Although, really we both know it’s to go home and collect a dozen chocolate eggs and then come back to Spain… Sorry to bring up Easter so soon but we’re already in March and I can’t believe how fast time is flying by! To think that my year abroad is already 3\/4 of the way through, I’ll try not to get too emotional and dive right into this blog post on the ENVIRONMENT! \u00a0(dun… dun… DUHHHHH).<\/p>\n

Now let’s\u00a0be honest, the word environment<\/em>\u00a0just leaves most people rolling their eyes and immediately switching off… BUT\u00a0I thought we could take a different spin on things\u00a0and this time get you guys to think more positively about\u00a0that old doom and gloom word, so let’s bring the environment<\/em> right back in a positive light to Wales<\/strong>! Wooo!<\/p>\n

So, we’ll start here with\u00a0a little exercise for you all… (don’t worry this involves no paperwork!)<\/p>\n

*Listen up!*<\/p>\n

We need everyone to close their eyes.<\/p>\n

(no peaking).<\/p>\n

Keep\u00a0your eyes closed for 30 seconds. (Teachers, this goes to\u00a0you too!)<\/p>\n

Imagine your\u00a0favourite outdoor green area<\/span>\u00a0you’ve visited in Wales –\u00a0it can be somewhere as small or large, local or even slightly further afield, as you wish.<\/p>\n

Try to put yourself back into that place and remember what you could see, feel\u00a0and hear\u00a0around you.<\/p>\n

After your 30 seconds, take a moment to reflect on your favourite place.<\/p>\n

For those of you that do<\/span> have a certain\u00a0place in mind, ask yourself these questions:<\/p>\n
