The week was filled with creativity, laughter, and unforgettable moments. On the first days, we created art, filmed short interviews, and answered fun questions like “If Erasmus were a color, which one would it be?” Later, we travelled to Kaunas, where a guide told fascinating stories about the city’s history. The evening ended with music, dancing, and lots of new friendships.
Midweek brought an early start as we headed to Klaipėda and Palanga. We visited the Sea Museum, explored marine exhibits, and even celebrated a Czech friend’s birthday by the seaside. The sound of waves, laughter, and sea air made it one of the most memorable days of the whole project.
The next day, we explored Vilnius, Lithuania’s beautiful capital. Walking through the Old Town with Lithuanian students, we learned about the country’s history and culture while enjoying every moment together.
On the final day, we watched a short film made by Lithuanian students and visited Raudondvaris Manor, learning about life long ago. In Kaunas, we had time to relax and strengthen the bonds of new friendship before the farewell party.
That evening was filled with joy and emotion — music, laughter, and the feeling of unity that Erasmus always brings. As the lights went down and goodbyes were said, we knew these weren’t just memories of a week — they were the beginning of lifelong friendships and stories that will stay with us forever.
