I went to Switzerland 2 years ago. I went because we were invited to play a hockey tournament. In this tournament was my team (Claret) and a team from Portugal, of Switzerland and of Italy. Each represented its country and I was very excited.

We went to Switzerland with our coach and we needed 2 days. First we passed through France and then we got to the city of Montreux (Switzerland). Before playing hockey, all the teams installed in a bunker, and later, our parents went to a chocolate factory. The next day, we played against Switzerland and we won easily. Then, the professional teams of the selections arrived to the sportscentre. They were the same teams that we can see on TV: Spain, Portugal, Angola and Switzerland.

The next day, we played the final against Portugal and we lost, but I didn't mind because I was very happy to play against all those teams.

This trip was amazing, and not only because we played against some national selections, but also because we made many Portuguese and Angolan friends. Our relationship with the Angolan players was so good that the president of the federation invited us to attent the tournament in Angolan, but our parents didn't let us go. We finally came back to Barcelona.
