Sporting heroes should try to be good role models

   Recently, the idea that successful athlets have to behave in a good way has been widely debated in our local community.

   Nowadays, we can see that not every sporting heroe is a good role model. In the world of sport, athlets find it very difficult to behave like everyone would want them to behave like. It is imposible to do everything perfectly but it has always been said that they should try to do it. There are examples in many areas which show that athlets are always criticised.

   On the other hand, it is clear that they should do whatever they think because they can not please everyone. However, because of this, people find them as if they were bad role models.

   To sum up, there is no doubt in my mind that sporting heroes must be theirselves, not just what others want them to be or to act like. So, although I can see both points of view, I must admit that that statement is, to my mind, not completely true.

AN UNEXPECTED JOURNEY

   Have you ever thought what would you do if you got lost in a country you had never been to? I'm sure you'll agree that this is an extreme situation but that is exactly what happened to me when I was a 9-year-old.
   To begin with, I would like to say that I was on holiday in Malta when this happened so at that moment I didn't know enough english to be able to speak with people. To make matters worse, it was the first day I spent there so imagine how terrified I was. Thanks God, I finally found some spanish visitors that helped me find my way to the hotel.
   Despite the awful beginning of the holiday, the fortnight I spent there was really enjoyable in the end so I wouldn't say that it was such a horrible jouney like  I expected it to be
   To summarise, I would say that this experience has probably changed me. Wouldn't it change you??

THE AKELARRE (Pedro Subijana)

     The restaurant I would like to review is located in Donostia and it is called Akelarre.

     I had always avoided going to the luxurious Akelarre as I thought it would be a very expensive place such as Arzak but I have to say that I completely changed my mind when I visited because it wasn't like I expected it to be.

     As a person who doesn't like every type of food I was satisfied with the high quality of every dish they served me, even though there wasn't too much quantity in each of them. As an example, I decided to try a steak and it was perfectly cooked.

    On top of that, it isn't a restaurant which is full of tourists so the atmosphere is very comfortable and the staff are very friendly and helpful. On the other hand, you have to wait a while until they serve you the food and therefore it's a little bit boring. Besides this, the food isn't overpriced so you'll be pleased.

     On the whole, I'd strongly recommend going there to everyone who likes the high quality cuisine.
