Poem about YE

Half-way day

Luckily, no-one missed the bus, we could welcome each of us. Immediately, we made it happen, english language was the weapon. Making friends from all around. It is the best way we have found. Speaking 10 days here together, making ourselves even better.

We got no to know each other's names after some integration games. Andrzej showed the perfect way
how to create a theatre play.
During the intercultural night
Santa-Vaiva and Marty arrived.
We've already had 2 debates
pigs and women were the case.

Circus classes

We want to thank to organization Happy Childhood Foundation and Andrzej Smyk for inviting professional woman, who taught us to improve our coordination and concentration skills by juggling. This meeting was unique for its unusual non-formal education methods. In the beginning we were explained, how people can benefit from activities, involving juggling, (by doing exercises we can develop connection between motoric centers in the brains and brains sides) and where it is used (primary schools and kindergartens are actively participating in these events, that kids could improve their brain state).

After this, we were showed several exercises with fingers, which we should do regularly to improve our concentration. We were explained that it is vital at work, while studying or just reading books during free-time. Finally, we had some juggling practice. We started with spinning plates and we were taught not only to spin it in general, but she showed us how to make some tricks. Lastly, she presented techniques how to juggle 3 balls, which was one of the most interesting activities. Actually, hardly did people leave the conference room after the workshop as everyone was so absorbed into the activities, that time just flew away.

It is a perfect Youth Exchange

It was an Erasmus youth exchange that I will not forget! First of all, the accommodation was perfect. All the facilities beginning from the hall, the kitchen, the rooms and the common areas (e.g. lounge) were prepared with the up most standards, both in terms of cleanliness and how spacious the rooms were. The food was very good and there was also a much needed 24\7 available beverage bar with cookies. The project was really interesting. We would like to take a minute to thank Andrzej for his extremely helpful nature and hospitality, showing preparedness and willingness to assist our team (and the rest) with any needs that we had in a just manner. The work hours put by him during the project (and before) can only serve as a testament for his genuine interest and involvement in Erasmus + projects and with the youth participating in them (From the whole team). 

We played some funny games which help us come in touch with other people in an unexpectedly creative manner. We improve our communication skills, trust each other and we learn how to be a part of a team. We use our imagination, our knowledge and building our ideas together. We also learn about the cultures of the other countries, about the similarities and the differences we have.

It was an amazing and unforgettable experience. We have met different cultures, cuisines, make new friends and compare our traditions in order to educate ourselves. I would like to live again and again such an experience! Thank you for offering me those incredible Christmas.
