Beside the work placement, our six Belgium trainees could discover a bit more the Spanish culture going out for a tapas night in a typical restaurant of the city center and enjoying a Seville tour organized by the Euromind team. They also had the opportunity to go to Portugal (Tavira), to enjoy the sunny weather.
