The first thing that appealed to me when I noticed the offer for this Erasmus was the destination – Denmark. Since I am a person…
Italy. One can imagine the beautiful sea, the sun, and a holiday on the beach, but for our Slovak team, it was probably a shock that caused us to change our heart rhythm on the first day. Our project called Disconnect to reconnect took place on a farm on a hill near the town of Passignano Sul Trasimeno. However, we joined forces with the Slovaks, suppressed prejudices about outdoor showers and toilets, and threw ourselves into an adventure with such enthusiasm that we won as much as we could. It should be mentioned that our six-member team consisted of completely different people, so our family had representation and talent in a wide range. The initial acquaintance with the Spaniards and Latvians took place on the train from…

In 100 years´ time, the likelihood of survival of humans is truly not a good-looking one. At least that is how it looks like unless we change our behavior to the concept of long-term sustainability & start to concern it as a serious issue. By the week well-spent in little sleepy town Bedsted-Thy we discovered several topics & uncovered the bases of upcycling, perks of genetically modified mood in a form of academic debate, geographic cycles of Milutin Milankovitch & went on a one-day trip to Aarhus, where we could try the ultimate paper-clip challenge, in which the principle of the game consists the fact you have to trade as many things as possible with random people in the streets, setting off with just a tiny next-to-useless paperclip. If I were to estimate the project considering all pros & cons included, all I can say the organizers did an incomparably better job than in the previous project, which took place in Poland & I had participated in as well. …
Late in August Youthfully Yours SK gave us the opportunity to travel to a charming city in the south of Bulgaria, which is preferably known for its winter attractions and mountains it lies in, and to participate on an 8-day youth exchange project with the main topic called “Political Games”. In Bansko we have met with a few inspirational people of various age categories from Bulgaria, Serbia and Poland. We should have been enriched with the Italian group, but unfortunately because of the bad Covid-19 conditions in their country, they couldn’t come. Thanks to brilliant organizator we have experienced quite a few methods based on informal education. We have started easily with team building activities during which we have got to know each other. After those so called “Ice Breakers” we have jumped right into the project activities. We have thought about stereotypes in the media and their effect on us, we have discussed current situations in our countries, human rights, LGBTQ+ problems, minorities and a…
