Growing as a human being involves learning, studying, and working, but it also means communicating, exploring, and enjoying life.
Today, our Erasmus participants have set their classes aside to continue learning through communication and meaningful experiences. Our wonderful hosts have taken them to Amasya, a beautiful city located two hours from Samsun.
Their first stop has been to discover the story of Ferhat and Şirin, two lovers whose shared destiny was tragically cut short by jealousy and deceit. After that, our students have visited several culturally significant monuments and buildings in the town, such as the Amasya Archaeological Museum and one of the city’s main mosques, the Bayezid II Mosque.
After these fascinating visits, our students have had time to enjoy lunch and some free time to explore the city.
Being abroad in such a friendly city, surrounded by languages different from their own, has encouraged our students to use their communication skills not only to engage with fellow Erasmus participants, but also with the warm and welcoming people of Amasya.
After a few hours, the group has returned to Samsun, their journey filled with music and singing.
Today has been a day not only of cultural awareness, but also of cultural exchange — the only path that can lead us towards a world where human rights are respected and valued by all of humanity.

Quina Ciutat!
El nostre vol arribava de matí a Bolonya, amb destinació final Firenze. Dels viatges, no importa només el destí sinó el trajecte, i hem començat les aventures amb un vagó de tren que semblava extret del Port Aventura, corregent buscant el bus "sostitutivo" qual prova de gimcana que ens portaria a Prato i acabant en el tren a Firenze, on algú quasi perd la maleta...
Hem tastat els primers bocins de menjar italià i portat els nostres cossos, rebentats d'estar desperts des de les 3, fins al mirador de la Piazzale Michelangelo, on les vistes del que aguaita per ser descobert eren captivadores...
Dimecres 2
Admirant obres mestres del Renaixement.
En el segon dia a Floreència ens hem llevat molt d’hora per poder visitar la Galeria dels Uffizi, entre totes les seues obres ens hem quedat meravellats amb La Primavera i el Naixement de Venus de Boticelli. Tot seguit ens hem endinsat pels carrerons de Florència per dinar i reposar forces per apropar-nos al museu Galileo i conèixer els avenços científics i vida de Galileu.
Per arrodonir la tarda, hem visitat Santa Maria de Croce i la Plaça de la Santíssima Annunziata.
Dijous 3
Últim dia de la nostra estada a Florència
Hem començat el dia en la Galleria dell'Accademia, on hem experimentat de primera mà, davant del David, la síndrome de Stendhal. La divina proporció ha fet presència en la façana de Santa Maria Novella, i en l'Officina Profumo-Farmaceutica hem aspirat l'essència clàssica. El nostre itinerari ha acabat en la Capella funerària dels Medici, possibilitadors de la riquesa artística florentina.

Welcome to Dublin
Our journey to Ireland has begun! This trip is not only about exploring Dublin but also about stepping out of our comfort zone and practicing real communication with native English speakers.
On our first day, we dropped off our luggage and set out to discover the city. After collecting maps from the tourist information center on O’Connell Street, the students that had previously prepared presentations in class, guided us through some of Dublin’s most iconic landmarks.
Thuersday 27
We spent our second day exploring Dublin. Following the free tour designed by the students, we continued uncovering new places.
Among the highlights of the day, we had a fantastic time at Temple Bar. We also visited the National Gallery of Ireland, where we admired an incredible collection of artwork and discovered fascinating pieces by renowned artists.
Friday 28
We started the morning with a delightful visit to St. Stephen’s Green, a beautiful park in the heart of the city, home to the Yeats Memorial.
After that, we embarked on an exciting educational game, racing through the city with a treasure map in hand. The challenge was inspired by the "Dublin Jewel Crown Mystery"—the infamous 1907 theft of the Irish Crown Jewels from Dublin Castle, a case that remains unsolved to this day.
Along the way, we discovered must-see attractions and hidden gems, making for an unforgettable adventure.
