"We travel not to escape reality, but for reality not to escape us"


Thanks to Erasmus, we were able to live one of the greatest experiences a teenager could ever dream of. In October we went to Ljubjana, the capital of Slovenia, which the Erasmus project let us appreciate to its fullest.
 The school we attended was in Komenda, a small town near the capital: there, we had the chance to meet numerous Slovenian, Bulgarian, Turkish and Romanian students who made our journey even more unforgettable.
 Not only we did visit the main attractions, but we also learned about Slovenian culture and traditions and were part of it for the whole week.
 This opportunity helped us to overcome prejudices and stereotypes and this is why it was a huge source of enrichment, and the only price you'll have to pay for the richness of knowing and loving people in more than one place is that you will never be able to feel completely at home again, because part of your heart will always be elsewhere.
