something special;

Every activity and every visit had great moments, but I think that our

I liked the trip to Cappadocia;

From Spain when I could capture students’ interest in discovering

Romania;

Visit to Italy;

Visit to Portugal - materials presented;

The experience from Bulgaria;

There have been many beautiful moments, but the one I loved most

was the movie presentation in Greece;

Three prizes in contest: ”MADE FOR EUROPE”;

The activities with the students in my school;

The activities during mobility project – exchange experiences;

I discovered new aspects of the culture, traditions the other

countries.

2. The worst moment during the project in our experience: There was no one worst moment. The time was a formidable opponent,

because it flew quickly.

I had some emotions before every visit in partner countries.

Sometimes, the language was a barrier in my communication with the other

teachers.

3. Would you like to participate in another school mobility project in the future?Of course, meeting other people, discovering new cultures could be

something you never forget.

I’d like to participate , because it gives me the opportunity to collaborate

with colleagues and to have valuable experiences exchanges.

experience.
