Our second meeting took place from 4th to 8th of November in Warsaw. First we had some ice-breaking games,

after which we could all greet each other in 6 languages!

We had some hands-on chemical experience.

We worked in multinational teams on habitat games …

 ... green surveys and a 6-language green dictionary

At the end of the first day we enjoyed a dancing class.

The next day we spent sightseeing and showing our guests the historical heritage of Warsaw.In the morning we visited the Royal Castle.

4. At the gate of the Barbican you can see a small column with a bronze sculpture informing that the Warsaw Old Town is on the UNESCO World Heritage List. Why has this part of the city been put on the list?

10. Walk around the Old Town Market Square. There used to live a basilisk which guarded treasures and turned people into stone when it looked at them. One day a brave tailor showed the basilisk a mirror and when the beast looked at its image in the mirror, it turned itself into stone. What reminds us of this legend?

7. On your right in Piłsudski Square you can see the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier. What happens there every hour on the hour? If you are at the right time there you can see it.

Then we played a field game in the Old Town and the Royal Tract. Mixed teams with Polish experts had to look around and find answers to various questions:

In the afternoon we spent a great time in the Copernicus Science Centre.

On Wednesday we took our partners for a beautiful walk in the Kabaty Forest. The weather was excellent, so we could perform our tasks - identifying certain trees and assessing their age.

In the forest not only can you enjoy nature, but also learn  about ecology.

After a hearty meal in the Zapiecek restaurant, where we tasted traditional Polish cuisine - pierogi - we went on to play a basketball match. There were no losers.

Thursday, the final day of our meeting in Warsaw, started with a visit to the viewing terrace on the 30th floor of the Palace of Culture and Science, which although built in the 1950s, still is the tallest building in Poland.

Later, we went on a guided tour of the exhibition 'In the Heart of the Country' held in the Museum of Modern Art in Warsaw, which shows 'Polish art as an integral element in the global circulation of art'

Then we had some workshops in the museum that explored art and the themes of our project.

In the afternoon we became artists. We prepared sculptures and collages commenting on the entire meeting in Warsaw. We used waste paper and other recyclables and of course infinite deposits of our creativity and imagination.

And then we presented our works of art !

More art!

Again, we had a great time and now we are looking forward to the next meeting in Hungary.
