This whole week was an honour to see you engaged, smiling, interested and eager to learn and experiment. Thank you for being so friendly, warm-hearted and involved. That is the best gift for us. I hope that you will bring a piece of Lithuanian hearts to your homes as well as some ideas and memories about the experiences you had here.

Thank you to our students and their parents for taking a good care of our guests, for being equally engaged and creative. I wish you to never lose the interest in international programs!

Teacher Zuzana, it was pleasure to get to know you, to spend the time with you. There was always someting to talk about, as if we had been friends before. I hope you will bring plenty of ideas for your school and continue to participate in Erasmus. Don't be shy- you are wonderful!

'The future belongs to those who have an interest in culture - their  own and that of other peoples. So, cherish your own culture. Share it with others. Be open and willing to embrace what those on the other side of the cultural fence can offer you.'

We have a wonderful headteacher, who helps us realize our dreams. Thank you!

I have a dream team - there are many people who envy me. Thank you Gitana, Aistė, Sandra, Silva.

From the bottom of my heart,

Irena Urboniene,

Lithuanian Erasmus team coordinator.

I think it affected me in many good ways for example I had to learn to not be afraid of speaking in front of others and I was feeling more comfortable with it each day. I also really enjoyed the activities that you prepared for us, I think that they all gave us some memories that we'll remember for a very long time. My favourite activities that we had in school were the arts in chemistry,physics and actually all of the others because the people preparing it really put their heart into making it a good experience for us and I'll remember it for a long time. All the teachers and also students were very kind to us and I think we couldn't have gotten better host families. I'll also never forget the trip to Kleipeda and visiting the sea in November :).

The chocolate factory was a unique, fun and tasty experience that I think we'll never forget. I'm alredy looking forward to meeting you again in April and thank you all for this erasmus project! <3

I enjoyed the trip from the first day to the last. First I would like to thank Žygis and his family for the provided home and food. I felt like I was a part of their family.

Second I would like to thank to Timas for teaching me guitar the first day and for the jokes. Bazaras.

Third I would like to thank to everyone involved in the erasmus+ for making it possible to meet amazing people and see some beautiful sights of lithuania.

The most enjoyable experiences for me were the tradiotional making of bread, the delfinarium and the cold war museum.

Once again I would like to thank everyone for making this mobility possible. I really enjoyed my stay in Lithuania and would definitely visit the country again.

P.S.: I hope you won't forget the rules of BANG!

With regards,

Jakub Lukáč

I can't wait to come to Slovakia!

I think all of the activities we participated in were interesting and helped our guest to understand lithuanian culture. Personally, I enjoyed visiting Klaipėda the most, becouse in my opinion the Baltic see is one the most beautiful places people can visit in our country.

This week passed by very fast, it was an experience I definetely enjoyed. I’m happy I got to participate and I look forward to going to Slovakia.

Thank you, Dear Teachers! You perfectly involved us in the activities and allowed us to gain even more experience! What an amazing week we had.

Looking forward to the last moments in the present with all of you. From the bottom of my soul.

I'm so glad to meet all of you and see you soon!

Traveling is a passion. One that i have in my heart. This experience meant a lot to me. My passion is to travel new places, and with this trip I not only got to know new places but also a whole new culture and new people. When you go on vacation, you don't often learn as much about a country as I did on this trip.

Meeting new people, connecting with them and sharing stories is really fun. Thanks to them, I learned a lot about their culture and the country as a whole. The program that was prepared for us was beautiful and very informative.

I will have many fun memories, adventures and experiences from here.

I thank the teachers and students for the program they prepared for us. I felt comfortable here. I take away new knowledge, memories and adventures.

I laughed a lot, we have beautiful group photos (a whole lot of them 😂). I would recommend Erasmus to every student.

Žygis;)

I had a great week. I think that Erasmus+ gives chance a to meet new wonderful people, and have unbelievable experiences.

This whole week all the students were smiling and wanted to learn something new. I liked all the days but for me, my favorite day was Monday because we got to know more each other and we went to Bread Path.

Thanks to everyone for being so friendly. I hope that all of you liked this week. For me it was amazing 😍

This whole week was amazing. Slovakian students were wonderful and very friendly. At first I thought that  will be very awkward to be and talk with older people, but it was the best experience of my life. They put a smile on my face and showed that age doesn’t matter.

Every activity made us closer and closer. We got a chance to communicate and get to know each other even better.

I’m very thankful for this week. It made me very happy.

See you soon in Slovakia❤️

When we came to school on Monday morning I was feeling very nervous about how everything will go. But from the very first moment you welcomed us with open hearts, smiling at us and willing to help us in any situation. Throughout the whole week you showed and shared with us various aspects of your culture and customs. From visiting Klaipeda and the Baltic sea with beautiful views from the beach, to workshop in the chocolate factory, I enjoyed every single activity that you’ve prepared for us. It is difficult to say which was the best, every single one of those experiences expanded and enriched my knowledge in various ways.

But what is even better about this week are the friendships and connections we made among each other that will hopefully last for a very long time. We laughed together, talked about our dreams and passions and learned new things from each other.

From this week, I’m bringing home dozens of memories that I will remember for the rest of my life. It was an amazing experience to meet you all and spend this time with you🤍

And I would like to say huge THANK YOU to Rugilė and her mom, who were my host family for this week and took care of me as if I was their real family🤍

Lenka :)

I really liked visiting different cities and communicating with people, it just lets me live the life, feel what is actually a life, it clears my mind and makes me happy.

My favourite day was friday because it was my first time in chocolate factory and also I saw the Cross hill for the first time. I love chocolate, so it was really fun and exciting for me. Cross hill was very impressive, I have never seen something like that with my own eyes, it was very unique and I liked energy there.

This was the best Erasmus+ program I have ever experienced because foreigners were really friendly and communicative.

The biggest impression left a visit in Cold War Military base. It showed us that peace and happy life is not guaranteed. Telsiai and Samogitian history helped us to improve knowledge about Lithuania.

As I am Physics teacher, lesson about light was very inspiriting . Yes, we can learn the whole life.

Sweet chocolate dot was funny.

Many thanks our Lithuanian hosts.

And my message after this time for others : Don' t be affraid to grab your chance even if you are sixteen or sixty :-)
