The incredible team of 50 people from 6 different countries with only one goal in mind!

What was that goal, and why?

After the pandemic hit in the middle of the social media revolution, the organizers noticed that the youth were isolating themselves even when they had the chance to socialize! That's when they decided to take action in making our project, which aimed at creating real-life connections between real-life people who would then go back to their hometowns with a fresh perspective on friendships.

The activities

Our learning and understanding of the goal were pursued via non-formal education and team-building activities like treasure hunting, mixed intercultural nights, and remastered versions of our childhood street games.

The ‘unofficial’ part

While the official sessions were refreshing and fun, participants were left thirsty for more adventure, so… we created more adventures by dancing, exploring, and in general, creating memories with our new friends. That’s how we understood that we had successfully completed the goal.

All in all, an Erasmus experience is one that cannot be described, so choose a program, pack your bags, and go have the time of your life!!
