Lithuania

 Our amazing week in Lithuania


During the week from the 3th to the 8th of April we participated in the erasmus project

“Against online slavery” in Lithuania, Skuodas. There were students from Lithuania, Italy,

Romania, Portugal, Turkey and Finland. During the week we took part in many activities,

which made us learn about the Lithuanian culture.


On Monday we liked the welcome event that Lithuanians prepared for us. We enjoyed

listening to the music played by the students of Ylakiai Gymnasium and we got to know each

other through the warm-up activities, which were so cool. We learned Photo manipulation

from the workshop, which was so funny and interesting.


On Tuesday we did a wool workshop. There we had the opportunity to do scrubbing sponge

with soap inside and we decorated them in the style that we liked. In the evening we spent

time in the youth center of Skuodas and we played board games and danced. We had so

much fun and we discovered how teenagers have fun here.


On Wednesday we visited many museums and the Amber museum was our favorite. The

Amber museum was in a very beautiful palace and we were able to buy some souvenirs

made of amber. Then we did a walk in a park and we saw the Baltic sea.


On Thursday we met the local folk group members and they taught us some traditional

dances. They were so kind and friendly and they helped us to understand their culture better.

During the farewell evening we got our certificate of participation and we really felt ourselves

a part of this Erasmus project. We danced to music from different countries and there was a

mix of cultures and we understood that we are different but similar.


On Friday we’re going to do the last activities and we hope that our last day here is going to

be amazing.


During the week we ate a lot of soup and meat and it was similar to Finnish food but very

different from Italian and Portuguese food.


Lithuanians are so kind, simple people and they are connected with nature which is

amazing. We will remember this trip, which made us grow as people and understand that we

are the future of Europe.
