The way of learning is impressive - sharing and directness. It was interesting to hear about the history, culture and experiences of the island.

Today i learned that intercultural lunch connects people by telling stories about the national food and racism ist still a big problem in Guadeloupe. And standing in the carribean sea encourages the conversation with dutch teacher.

Today I learned that you can break stones with the sound of music.

Today I learned that Christoph Kolumbus was involved in the discovery of Guadeloupe.

Today I learned how big avocados and almonds can be.

Today I learned about Guadeloupe island and it’s history. The facts about racism was said and shocking and let me think about our social bubbles and racial inequality.

And most of all what I learned today: “There is a story behind every object”.

Today I learned about natural, tangible, and intangible heritage as defined by UNESCO. We explored many different examples from countries all over the world. Unfortunately, a large number of heritage sites and traditions are now inaccessible or lost because we no longer have the materials or knowledge needed to recreate certain products — for example, the Egyptian pyramids.

One pleasant surprise today was the delicious lunch. I realized how much I missed my Latvian food, but at the same time, I found that the cuisine from other countries felt familiar and comforting.

Today i learnt... About Guadalupe culture, heritage and history. How these people have a strong feeling of belonging to Guada, how these people create their own language - creole - and its own identity, tradition, culture and gastronomy through a mixte of other cultures and languages.

Today, I learned about Guadalupe, where Creole is a fascinating blend of French and local languages, reflecting the island’s rich cultural mix. This unique language carries the history of colonization and the resilience of its people, blending European and Caribbean influences into something entirely its own.

Learning about ourselves and our cultures through the others is one of the biggest assests in group dynamics 🤩 Our lunch today brought a lot of similarities and differences in our cultures. Valuable time for learning!

If talking about digital side of our lives - do you trust technology? (example today's weather forecast 🤣🤣🤣)

Today I learned the name of the tree I first saw in Guadeloupe: Coccoloba uvifera. In Dutch: zeedruif. Beautiful tree. Beautiful leaves.

Today I learned (was reminded) about the slavery history of Guadeloupe. We also discussed UNESCO and played a little game, with a conclusion that UNESCO has mostly intangible heritage. It’s focussing on a certain skill. Unfortunately there are a lot of skills we lost in the past years. We still have the (tangible) objects, but we’re not able to do it the same way.

Also, I enjoyed the little conversation during the break with the German team about their school. They teach students from 17 years and older in a 3-year study in hotel business. There’s a big difficulty: many Asian students come to Germany for this study, but they don’t speak any English or German. They also live together, so there’s no other urge to learn it. Now they have to do a test to get to the study programm, and 20% doesn’t pass.

Today I learned that cultural simularities can be found between the baltic States and India.

Proof of this can be found in the language. For explaining these simularities we are left with unproven theories. Trade en sexual relations seem to be the most likely sources.

Today I learned about the history of Guadeloupe and what influance that had on the culture (groups took there own culture with them in their heads and adapted it to the island). I also was shocked about the racism on the island. The last thing I take with me is the different kinds of cultural heritage.
