A TRIP TO THE NORTH

Hi! I’m João Sousa and I’m a Portuguese YouTuber.


Last year my schoolmates and I visited Porto.
It’s a big, beautiful city in the north of Portugal. We
travelled by train. We stayed there for three days
5 and we enjoyed ourselves very much!
When we arrived at São Bento railway station
there was a bus waiting to take us to the hotel. On
that day, in the afternoon, we visited Clérigos Tower
and the Museum of Transport and Communication.
10 At night we walked along a place called “Ribeira”, in
the historical centre of the city. There were lots of
restaurants and we tried a typical food: “Francesinhas”.
It’s delicious! We could also see the lights of Luís I
Bridge. What a great view!
15 On the second day we visited Sea Life Porto. We
learned a lot about sea life and how we can protect
the ocean. Then we stopped at Casa da Música,
where we listened to a wonderful concert.
Our school trip ended on the third day
20
at World of Discoveries, an interactive museum and
a theme park. There are many historical facts about
how Portuguese navigators discovered the world in
that museum. I want to go back there some day!
It was an unforgettable trip, so I posted some
25 videos of it on my YouTube channel!
