The first day, we visited the school (gymnasium, canteen, library). It was the same as our school
Then, they met us with musical show.. Thereupon, we started to visit the centrum and they told
about the history of Torres Novas. They tried to teach us their city with historical places through a
game. It was very funny but at the same time, the walking was very tiring.
In the theatre day, we were so excited and curious because we thought "How is their theatre
performance?. We went to the theatre hall in another school and each partner school performed their
play. While performing our play I heard people laughing and applauding us.So I felt relaxed and at
that moment I gained my self confidence that is very important for me and self-educated in the
field of art as well.. We took lots of photos to make that moments unforgattable…….
I first heard the “Celebrating European Day” and I was wondering what they were going to do.They
prepared entertainment for all the host and the guest students.It was really fun we enjoyed a lot.
As for the best part, visiting the Lisbon... I always
wanted to go to the capital city of the countries in The
World because there are many questions in my mind
about the capital citites.
Firstly we visited national palace in Sintra and beautiful
narrow old streets. I thought because they protected the
historical places and more than everything there is no
pollution anywhere. Then ı can't forget to spend time on
a bus. Everybody was so happy and contacted with each
other. when we got off the bus, went to Lisbon, I saw
the harmony between modernity and historical. you can
see the old construction across you can see metros
inside the city. The latest model car was passing on the
cabblestones. “The city centre is very crowded today” said one of Porteguese friend “because of
the World Song Contest”.
But of course, there is the end of nice time every time.
The week passed quickly and our farewell time
came. everybody's face was sad. Everybody wanted to
cry but everybody learned one thing. Maybe this was
the most important ı have ever said "We showed that
we could be a sibling with people from different
countries. Nobody care about where wewere from.
We just are human and we can interact with these
people. I hope, ı live this experiment again and join
this kind of projects.
Thank you for everything Erasmus. You have added a lot of thing to me.
