Participant about Youth Exchange

Let me tell you a story-feelings Chrystalla Tsoutsouki I don’t really know how to express my feelings about this youth exchange. The first feelings appeared when I saw the topic of this exchange program. I was waiting every day for my acceptance email. You don’t find easily youth exchanges like this one, programs that are able to change your way of thinking, to teach you more than 6 years in...

Feeling about this YE

Some says that my generation (I’m 23) is lost. We lost our way. We don’t have a goal to follow. Unfortunatelly it is very true. Even us who attends to E+ projects sometimes express the feeling that we don’t really have a next step in our mind. Or the lucky ones say they are just unsure how to reach it. This kind of discussion happened also in this project. But this is where the tables turned. In...

Farewell to Motycz

After figuring out what to put inside of our sandwiches (sorry Christina for we didn’t left any for you) and slowly gathering all our bags into one big pile. It was time to leave. Some of us already left. Our little roller coaster which was still somehow was shaped as a bus. Started to speed up and the vast white fields slowly disappeared behind us. Our 3 hour long journey was the same as usual....

LARP day

The day started off as usual with breakfast but we were already feeling the pressure of it being the last day. We knew we had to say goodbye quite soon and we had gotten so attached to our friends, we really didn’t want to. After breakfast we had an energizer and a brief session on the LARP game, even though we were sad the days spend in Motycz were slowly slipping away, we were anticipating the...

Pattern interview

The day started out very nice, as we had a very nice prepared breakfast. One of the most important days of the project, was about to start. Thirst for knowledge came to my mind, just imagine the courage of this person to be able to express herself in front of thirty ´´strangers´´. Unbelievable, for the next two hours I just wanted to listen and envision her story. We couldn’t imagine walking...

Interview with Adelina from Romania

How was your journey? It was very good, just 2 hours in plane, but then about 3-4 hours by bus which nobody of us expected. (laughing) How did you get to know about this project? It’s actually very funny. Erasmus+ 3 months ago was super funny, it was a training course and I liked it very much. Then my friend wrote an application for this project, which is my third, and told me to come along....

We had the chance to get some rest from the very long road to here. We took a 4 hour ride from Warsaw to get to our current acomodation place. The day started like every other day would. We had...

First day together in Motycz Leśny

Our second day begun with a nice breakfast and a cup of coffee. The hungarian team welcomed us with a simple and creative name game.  In this game each one had to introduce himself with a special movement. We have to admit that after that we begun to remember all participants names... ok perhaps not all of them.  After our first contact, bonding naturally took place. Following this, the...
