Erasmus+ is a great programme for people who want to know more about the world and improve themselves in different fields. This autumn I had an opportunity to participate in one of Erasmus+ courses as well. At the end of November, 43 youngsters from 3 countries (Lithuanian, Poland and Slovakia) gathered within the topic “Set your business now!” in Zakapone, Poland from 28th November- 6th December 2015.
Like in the other training courses, the activities started with introduction games and team building activities which laid the foundations for a beautiful team and great friendships among the participants.
The days were full of discussions and presentations about the first step in business. A few days later, we have intercultural evening where different countries bring traditional food, drinks, sweets and snacks, together with pictures, DVDs, and music by the country. Telling about every country, their traditions, culture and education.
Tasting different food and learning traditional dances, hearing people greeting each other in several different language every morning, singing songs after being late, feeling no communication barrier, even if there was no common language, laughing till it hurts – these are the great memories that everyone brought back and hopefully, will share with the others to encourage people to travel and discover Europe.
