What impressed us most in Sicily....by the Bulgarian team

My great time in Sicily

 Lora Radkovska

Coming to Sicily, I knew that I was going to have an amazing time. However, my stay exceeded my expectations.

Firstly, when I arrived I was warmly welcomed by the whole Rappazzo family. My host, Giulia, introduced me to her sister and her parents. Later that night, we had dinner together, where they served me one of the most signature Sicilian dishes – aranchini.

On the next day, we visited one of the local schools where the students gave an astonishing musical performance. Then every country represented their cultural heritage with a video or a presentation. I learned so much not only for Sicily but for the other participants too.

The next few days me and the other students visited many local sights such as Taormina, the local theater, the Town Hall. During my stay I was feeling more than welcome in my host family. Their hospitality made my visit unforgettable. This visit not only made me develop empathy for other cultures but also helped me create a lifetime friendships.

The trip to Sicily was amazing. All the love that the family had shown to me was remarkable. They are very kind and hospitable people. When I got there, I was like a dog with two tails. I saw the amazing architecture of the town, but let me tell you about the food. It’s one of a kind. From the ice cream to the homemade pasta. Everything from the first night to the last day was very magnificent. All the places we had visited ware stunning with a wonderful view. I have learned a lot about the Sicily’s history.  I am really tankful to my teachers and Erasmus for that I had chance to be a part of the enjoyable travel. I would recommend and be part of all other Erasmus trips in the future.

First of all if you participate in Erasmus you can see different people and how people live in other countries. Also you can visit interesting places. One of the most important things is that you improve your English. You become more sociable because you should to communicate with other project participants. Respect to all families who are ready to shelter someone in their family. For one week you become a member of your hosts’ family. I think all families are loving and caring with their guests.

Italy is one of the most beautiful countries and especially Sicily. Italian food is the best in the word. People there were very kind to all of us. Host families took good care for us. I really like this one week in Sicily and I want to thank to all Erasmus project.

I was extremely satisfied with my visit to Sicily. I learned a lot about Italian culture, cuisine and history but most importantly I was delighted to spend time with people my age from all over Europe. I am grateful for receiving the opportunity to travel to Italy and to see so many beautiful cities and cultural sites. I hope I get to go back there one day in the future and have an incredible time again. I would gladly recommend other students to participate in the Erasmus project because it is a once in a lifetime opportunity that no one should miss out on.

Then you can test what you have learnt about the sights and museums in this  KAHOOT .

An Adventure in Hungary

  Vanko Tarakchiev To begin with, that was it for me. It was a completely new and different experience for me. The excellent organization got my attention. Everything had been precisely planned and executed. The places we visited were fascinating and had remarkable histories. One of the things I enjoyed the most was when each country's cultural customs were presented. The cave alley Tapolca also left an impression on me; it was something special and remarkable.           Anton Tsochev I’ve never been in Hungary before this project. I learnt many different and new things about the country. The most beautiful place for me is the lake Balaton. The biggest lake in central Europe and one of the region’s foremost tourist destinations. People were very kind with us everywhere: In the restaurants, shops and in the school. Host family was very caring. This one week was very useful for all of us I think. We improved our communication skills. I like Hu...

Greece - ancient, new but still beautiful

From the mobility in Crete, I was most impressed by our trip to the aquarium in the capital and the view we saw inside.  I saw fish, turtles and all sorts of different aquatic life that I had only heard of but not seen live.  I was very impressed with the shark we saw in the aquarium, because I had not seen such a thing.  There were other fish that were very interesting, but I don't remember what kind they were.  Jellyfish were also very interesting, they are beautiful creatures, but also dangerous.  We also saw the fish depicted in the children's film Nemo, which were very interesting and brought back childhood memories of the film.  For me, this was the place of rest that impressed me the most. Lyubomir I absolutely love everything about our Greek experience.One of my favourite town in Crete is Heraklion.The town is beautiful and it is near to the sea.The town has got so much museums. The second place that have my attention was the National History Muse...
