WELCOME TO THE TOUR DIARY
Barcelona · Provence · Côte d’Azur · Florence · Pisa · Rome
April 2025
Dear students, dear families,
The moment has come.
A new adventure is about to begin — one filled with color, culture, and stories waiting to be lived.
And I couldn’t be more excited to guide you through it.
My name is Lucas, and I’ll be your Tour Director on this extraordinary journey through three countries and countless memories.
I was born in the south of France, in the sun-drenched city of Nice, right on the edge of the Mediterranean Sea. When I was just a child, I moved to the Canary Islands, where I grew up surrounded by nature, volcanic landscapes, and the rhythm of the ocean. Later, I studied and worked between Asia, Paris, and Barcelona, always carrying one passion with me: the love for learning through travel.
Over the next days, we’ll explore some of the most magical corners of Europe:
• We’ll begin in Barcelona, where Gaudí’s creativity explodes in color and the Mediterranean air is filled with life.
• Then we’ll cross into the south of France, discovering the lavender-scented landscapes of Provence and the glamour and charm of the Côte d’Azur.
• From there, we’ll journey into Italy, tracing the steps of art, empire, and wonder — through Florence, Pisa, and ending in the eternal city: Rome.
This Tour Diary is a space for reflection, connection, and storytelling.
Each day, I’ll be sharing photos, memories, and a few words to bring our experiences to life — for you, the students living the adventure, and for the families following us from home.
Because this isn’t just a trip.
It’s a celebration of discovery, of friendship, of beauty.
And it’s a story we will write — together — one step at a time.
With excitement and heart,
Lucas
Your Tour Director
