Thousands of British academics come to Salou to celebrate Easter week


It has become a tradition at this time. Thousands of British “occupy” the Catalan village of Salou to spend Easter week. At the time, 4000 of the 9000 people expected, have reached. However, many residents complain of disturbances, noise and dirt that they cause. Others, like the innkeepers, give the welcome to students with open arms by the economic boost they represent. 
They take advantage of the sun and the good weather that is in the Catalan coast, and not enjoy at home, to enjoy the passing days in Spain. They make sport games on the beach but always with a glass of alcohol in their hands. 
It is called the “Saloufest” for them and this year is the thirteenth edition .
It sounds heavy  as lot of academics take for a week the beaches of Salou to get sloshed and to have fun as when someone is young it seems funny and cool, but for the people from the village, I think that it has to be really annoying and tired. Seeing that your town becomes  dirty and a night life place make you feel worry for your family and your house. What have to think the little ones? And the people arround the world, from the city? 
In my opinion it has to be good and funny but with a limit, always respecting the citizen and the diferents places that they go as the beaches, the hotels, the streets, ....
