Five Students, One Journey: From Barcelona to Skopje

¡Hola! Meet our new Spanish VET students. They came all the way from Barcelona to live and work in Skopje for two months during their internship in fitness company Fitnes Fabrika. Since the first moment we met, the whole group caught us with their energetic and positive spirit. We are looking forward to the next two months together and learning more about sports!

Noa

“I don’t wanna miss a thing”

Noa does not simply love this favourite song of her mother but also lives her life accordingly. She is 19 years old and studies sports, while dreaming of becoming a physical therapist. In her free time, she enjoys doing cross fit.

And her favourite Catalan word? Tap de suro 🍾

Julia

“Anything by Bad Gyal”

These songs are what Julia says describes her life well, because it reminds her of her cousins that are like sisters to her. Apart from spending time with her family, she studies nutrition and dreams of becoming a doctor or nutritionist. Another passion of hers is playing the piano and tennis, which she’s been doing for 10 years.

And her favourite Catalan word? Esparrecs 🌿

Guillem

“Sleepy head”

Even though Guillem claims this song to be a personality trait, he keeps himself busy. At 19 years old he studies sports, and dreams of travelling the world. In his free time he practises combat sports and plays the drums.

And his favourite Catalan word? Calçot 🌱

Jaume

“Never gonna leave you”

That’s what Jaume says about his life, and we are happy he is not going to leave Macedonia very soon. He’s 20 years old, he studies sports and wants to become a primary school teacher.

And his favourite Catalan word? Mallerenga Carbonera 🪶

Jofre

“Anything by Rudy, my father’s favourite band”

This is Jofre’s answer to the question of a theme song of his life. At 20 years old, he studies nutrition and wants to become a chef. His other passion is playing handball in a team, which he has been doing for over 5 years.
