Last day in Murowana Goślina

It's already fifth day! The time is moving too fast! We started our day from 5 hours of visitng old wooden churches which are located in small villages around Murowana Goślina. The bus was waiting for us near the school. Our Wooden Churhes Tour Route was really interesting because we heard about their meaning and some stories and legends. We got know how were they built and what was the reason. Many of them was in Gotish style and it was really impressive when we heard that those churches were build only by wood, and even nails were aslo made by wood!

After this route Mr. Jackub invited us to his house for Culinary workshop. It was  funny and unforgetable for everybody. We were devided into 5 groups and each of group members had to prepare some meal by themselves. We wouldn't do these delicious meals without irreplaceble help - Mr Jakub's mother! It was like a competition between us but we had great time! We were laughing and enjoying this time as we couldn't wait to taste every meal!

Hippies time, make freedom not war

Fourth day of our project was one of the most expected day during this week. After hours of working and preparing our wonderfull and colorfull hippies clothes, we went to Poznań at Freedom Square to make  full of happiness flowers happening "Against War". At first the event was organized were we wore our handmade outfits and asked people to come over and write there thoughts on papers about peace in the world. Everyone found a person who wanted to be a part of this happening. We think that this idea and quest really connected us to do something not difficult but very symbolic. After 30 minutes all people with white and red balloons which was gathered at the square, stood on the stairs and arragned the polish flag from the balloons. At the one moment all of them let balloons out to the air. It was awesome view to see how these all wishes and sentences ascended to the heaven. Here are some interviews and newspapers' relations from this event:

Third day, third impression, third time face2face

As second day was also very tiring and busy we had problems with waking up again and not being late ;) Our meeting supposed to start at 10 but it started 10.45 (this time it wasn't Jacob's fault) ;) We met in the same classroom and began first part of leadership's workshop. We had to choose person with whom we wanted to work for the next 2 months and then discuss about that. Everyone shared their ideas with each other and made some plans for the project ;)

We had also found two hours to do some sport activities such as basketball and volleyball - Poland vs. Georgia. It was interesting and exhausting match but we enjoyed it very much!

Second day, second impression, second time face2face

After first crazy and tiring night we met about 10 o'clock (Jakub was late of course) in our favourite classroom "16". We had there flowers' workshops which helped us to get some informations about name, meaning and properties of three important for us flowers: rose, tulip and carnation. At the beginning we were devided 3 groups as there were 3 flowers. First of all, we had to guess what was the meaning of that different colours of  flowers. After this Mr. Jakub showed and explained to us, how and for what purpose we could use this flowers and what was the real meaning of that. It was really  interesting and important lesson for us.
