"It was so different in Poland compared to Germany. The countries are right next to each other but they aren’t similar at all. It’s way colder in Poland and the culture couldn’t be more different. Being together with so many different countries was the best part of the trip because I learned about so many countries and people and I made many new friends."

Max - Germany

"For me, the trip to Poland was really nice. We had the chance  to meet friendly students from the following countries: Spain, Martinique, Portugal, Rumania and of cause Poland. We all stayed in a hotel. If there wasn`t the annoying Corona-Virus we would have been  allowed to sleep at the polnish students at their homes. Anyway, I can guarantee you that it was a wonderful time.

For the whole week we had a program, what we did on each day of the week. It was very interesting to get to know something about the landscapes, the culture and also about the traditional food there. We visited some museums and the popular city Krakow. On the last days we went to the school of the Polish students and every country presented their own town and heritage. From my view, our presentation wasn`t the best, but now I know what could I make better for the next time. As you can see, you could learn  many different things which aren`t taught in school but which could be nice to know for the future life.

At the end I would like to say that I am really happy to had this choice to do those cool projects. So if you have the opportunity to be a member of a Erasmus project you should join it."

"To me the exchange in Poland was a beautiful experience. The thing, which I liked the most, was that I was able to meet new people, to make new friends and to get to know to their countries as well as things, which are typical about the country. Also, there was nothing I didn’t like. As I said, it was an incredibly beautiful experience, and I would participate again!"

Katharina - Germany

"In the month of November me and 3 friends got the opportunity to fly and visit Poland. We spent 2 days in Krakow and the rest of the days in Zwyiecs. This project was in a partnership with 5 other schools, which gave us the chance to get to know people from all around Europe. This experience was amazing, besides the people that we met, we also got to know “thousands” of fantastic places and tried many new and delicious foods. This was truly a week that will stay in my mind and heart forever."

Carolina Gomes - Portugal

"I am glad that my school has given me the chance to participate in an Erasmus project. Going to Poland and getting to know other peoples and cultures was one of the greatest experiences that I have ever had. 

Poland wasn't a country that at first I thought I would like; However, Krákow had this beautiful gothic architecture, full of small local businesses that got me with no words. I really enjoyed visiting the Castle of Krákow and just walking around. 

In Zywiec we were welcomed with kindness and made new friends very quickly. Our hotel had a Polish restaurant where the food was exceptional. I appreciated visiting the city Castle, the beer fabric and the lake was a handsome place where I took lots of pictures. Visiting Auschwitz was an unforgettable experience that gave me goosebumps the entire time. 

To conclude, I want to thank my school and the European club for providing me this opportunity and I couldn 't be more grateful for the trip and for the people that made my stay in Poland possible, pleasant and valuable!"

Victória Pinto - Portugal

"Having the opportunity to travel to Poland with the European club was one of the best experiences of my life. I met lots of amazing people from other countries and made many friendships that I hope to keep. I also got to know another way of living as the customs and traditions of another country. It's an experience that I really would like to repeat."

Ana Cardoso - Portugal

"Travelling to Poland with the Europeu Club was one of the most incredible and memorable experiences that I've ever had. We visited lots of different places and restaurants, we met lots of amazing people from different countries and got to know both them and their cultures. I can't choose just one thing to be my favourite one about the trip. However, I can say that it was awesome and that I would love to have another opportunity like this :) "

Linda Almeida - Portugal

"It was a great experience. The activities from the school were very nice and we enjoyed a lot to try traditional Polish dances. Also the traditional costumes were very beautiful and interesting, I have never seen such costumes. I liked the visits to the Zywiec objectives and the visit to Krakow."

Diana Standolariu - Romania

"The mobility in Poland was very nice and interesting. We saw a lot of beautiful and interesting places, like the Zywiec Museum and the Zywiec Lake. I liked all the activities from school. Thank you for this opportunity."

Bianca Vatamanu - Romania

"Poland is a beautiful country and the Zywiec region also. I liked all the trips and also I liked the traditional Polish food. I enjoyed very much the visit at the school with horses, because I really like horses. Everything was fine, we met other European colleagues and we had great experiences together!" 

Danut Tcaciuc - Romania

"For me this mobility was my first trip out of my country and I have discovered  a very beautiful country Poland and the Zywiec region, with great traditions, food, culture and landscapes. The trip to Krakow was great, also the dragon legend and the dragon statue that spit fire was quite unique.  The activities at school were nice and interesting, we made  friends from other schools and I really hope that we will see each other in the future."
