What to bring

• Typical food and drinks from your countries. During the youth exchange we will have traditional evenings and basically each evening will belong to a different country. You can bring national costumes, decorations, leaflets, food, sweets, drinks and much more. There might be the possibility to cook something using the kitchen of the establishment. 

Unfortunately, we don’t have budget to reimburse the expenses made for the things you are bringing, but try to be creative and funny. 

You can show videos, photos, sing songs and dance traditional dances from your countries. We are counting on you to make these evenings as interesting as possible and promise to help you in any way we can.

• Research on healthy lifestyle, life satisfaction and well being issues faced by youngsters from your communities. It would be wise to look into the matter before coming to Romania and during the work sessions explain and give practical examples from your countries.

• Each national team should have at least 2 laptops and 2 good photo cameras/ phones.

• In October it can be cold in the mountains. Prepare for temperatures between
  15 Celsius (or higher) during the day and 5 Celsius (or lower) during nights. It is recommended to bring warm clothes in case it rains or you wish to stay outside during evenings, when it gets chilly. It is not uncommon to see snow in October, especially in the mountains around.

• Bed linen and toiletries are provided by the guesthouse, however we encourage you to bring your own towels and whatever you need for the shower, so that you feel comfortable.

• We will provide water daily. Please bring your own water recipients to avoid use of plastic glasses.

• We will have available the emergency medical kit. However we encourage you to bring the remedies you are used to for most common situations such as fever, headaches, stomach aches and more specific needs, if it is the case.

• Although we can’t reimburse the cost of health insurances, it is mandatory to have a valid health insurance covering COVID-19 cases as well. As Romania is an EU member, an insurance should be cheap and easy to make. If you have a European Health Card, please bring it with you, it is valid in our hospital system.
