Many people dream about meeting their idols, experiencing a LaLiga match live, stepping foot on the hallowed turf of a stadium like Anoeta and immortalising the moment with players that you've been following since you were little. Very few, however, can state that a concept which you yearn for one day becomes reality the next. Today, I am one of the lucky few.
Once the dust had settled, I was able to think about everything I've enjoyed thanks to the #LigaBBVAExperience. My heart is still racing as I look back on all the moments we've spent together as part of an experience that oozed a special and different feeling from the off.
Travelling thousands of kilometres to enjoy the beauty of San Sebastian, the warmth of the people, the delicious pinchos and the stunning scenery made for an unforgettable trip that went far and beyond even my wildest dreams. Mingling with Real Sociedad and FC Barcelona supporters and being able to step out on to the same pitch as the stars is an image that I keep playing over in my mind whenever I close my eyes.

Not to mention the surprise that the Basque side had prepared for us. Receiving a kit with each of our names on made me realise just how far your imagination can go and allowed me to live another dream, that of being a LaLiga footballer for a day.
If there was a single outstanding activity above all the others, it would have to be the match. I could see the best players in the world be put through their paces during the warm-up just a few metres away from me. The atmosphere was buzzing when the game kicked off with countless fellow fans excitedly voicing their support nearby, although they couldn't know just how much it meant to me. I was experiencing a LaLiga match live and soaking up the magic of the beautiful game. It was incredible!
After three action-packed days, it's time to go home and I don't want to do that without thanking LaLiga for the opportunity they've given me to enjoy this #LigaBBVAExperience. This is not a goodbye, but a see you soon, because I will definitely be back for more LaLiga fun.
