During the visit we share the effects of our work, products and results of the last 3 months and realise lots of new activities, which are the subjects of continuing evaluation.

The travel from Łuków to Perişoru was very long and exhausting, but some of us liked it very much. We travelled over 1600 km, but that’s important that we did it safely, in good mood and full of positive expectations. During the journey we stopped for a lunch in Slovakia. We arrived at the destination on Sunday, just after 13 o’clock, that’s nearly after 30 hours of travel, but immediately we were welcomed very warmly.

We started Monday with joint breakfast with newly met friends in our host families. After rich and various meal we met the students from other countries in the local school. We were welcomed by the head teacher, Ms Gabriela Tatuc, and then the coordinator of the project in Romania, Ms Ana­Maria Hodorogea.After that the Mayor of Perişoru and the Chief of the Department of Education in the Călăraşi County. Next, Fernando Maestre, the coordinator of the project from Spain showed us the aims and tasks of the project.

During the official ceremony we gave local presents from Department of promotion in lovely Łuków for projects coordinators.Because in our meeting we had 9th May and it is the Day of the Europe, our partners presented their traditional dances and songs or national clothes.

Our Polish team danced Silesian dance ,,Zasiali górale…” and we sang national, folk song ,,Lipka”.Then we sang ,,Byłaś dla mnie wszystkim” band Poparzeni Kawą Trzy and Gosia Rychta played of the saxophone this song.

Our performance appealed our partners and we took a lot of applause. Our costumes were really awesome and we are thanking now Ms. Karinie Wedziuk because she prepared 14 folks costumes.

We had a lot of fun and we made a lots friends. After performances we went to local church ,,The Assleping of Virgiu Maria” and it was built in 1942.

At 9:00 we left Perisoru towards Murfatlar vineyard, which is located in the south­eastern Romania.

It is also the largest vineyard in the country. It was established in 1943 and produces annually more than 20 million bottles of wine, exporting its products to more than 40 countries around the world.

While visiting the winery we had a CLIL lessons and we learned how today the wine is made. We also visited a local history museum of wine in the region.

You can also add that the vineyard Murfatlar is very modern because it employs only 25 people, and the most of the work is done by machines. An interesting fact was that in 1955 the vineyard area amounted up to 2,600 hectares (ha) and today there are more than 3,000 hectares. After exploring Murfatlar we went to Constanta, located at the Black Sea shore.

It is the biggest harbour city in Romania and the second largest in the Black Sea. First we went to the beach to make beautiful pictures and admire the Black Sea, formerly called the Great Sea.

Hungry and a bit tired we went for lunch at a restaurant where we ate pasta "Penne Alla Nonna" and the chicken breast served with mashed potatoes and vegetables. For dessert we got the cheesecake. When everyone finished eating its lunch (no need to say that all very tasted and everyone who

came out was filled the gap) boarded the bus and drove off in the direction of the aquarium.

During a visit of the aquarium we had a chance to see various species of fish, among others, piranhas and catfish. After a day full of unforgettable experiences we went to Perisoru.

The

day

passed

quickly,

variously, nice and cheerful.

The day began with great sunshine weather. Immediately after the breakfast we went to the host school. And the first CLIL lesson took place. It concerned with the properties and the role of cells in the human body. It was presented the Spanish team.

Then we came out with our lesson, based on which we could find out how scientists measure the number of species in a given area and if half of an area will be subject to the investment, eg. construction of the motorway then disappears (from this area) half number of the species, or less or more, and what influences on it.

Then we went for lunch prepared by our host parents. After the meal we took part in the lesson prepared by Lithuanians ­ it concerned with renewable energy sources. Immediately after the very interesting lesson, the students from Romania invited us to play volleyball at the sports’ hall.

The most interesting competition for all of us was an obstacle trait. Full of positive energy we returned to school. Finally, the time came for our presentation, which described biological sciences. After presenting our work we collected thunderous applause.

Both

teams

showed a presentation in an interesting way.

All tired, but happy we returned to the houses with our hosts.

On the fourth day after breakfast at 6:30 we set out in the five­hour journey to the city of Bran.

We visited the castle of Bran, which is located on the border between Transylvania and Wallachia, and is also called Dracula's castle. In 1920 he was a favorite royal residence and the apartment of Queen Mary. On the first of June 2009, the castle was opened as the first private museum in Romania. Now we can see where art and furniture were collected by Queen Mary.

After visiting the castle we had CLIL lessons with a professional guide and taking commemorative photos in the mini zoo, where we saw peacocks, rabbits, goats, deer and other animals.

Then we went for dinner to the restaurant the Vila of Bran. We ate there one of the traditional Romanian meal and got memorabilia associated with Romania

Then the train arrived at the top of the mountain, where we toured the castle Rasnov. The building was built in the years 1211 ­ 1225. Inside is a museum, we can admire the local history, eg . weapons coming from that period.

After an eventful day we came back tired home. The next day also promises to be full of impressions.

Today we are part in interesting CLIL lesson called “Agriculture and industrial machines”. This lesson conducted teachers in Romania. At the beginning we watched a presentation and played in Kahoot, checking your knowledge.

Then we took a bus for a outside CLIL lesson about vegetable farm, which was founded in 1994, which is one of the largest vegetable producers in Romania.

It covers 2 500 hectares ­ and it is the third largest farm in Romania. It produces and sorts more than 3 000 tonnes of carrots and 2 000 tonnes of onions in the season. We also had the opportunity to watch a field full of vegetables, how to prepare the ground, the work of individual machines in the field, sowing, fertilization and irrigation, i.e. how hydration.

Then we returned to the farm and tried lightly fermented juice of elderberry blossoms, with honey and lemon. Of course it was homemade. After a very intensive activities on the farm we arrived for dinner, prepared by parents. We ate with taste. Later we returned to school, where we had to complement evaluation forms on computers.

Here we could say that which elements, events or activities were interesting for us, important and we liked.

We learned a lot during this mobility and we have established very warm relations that we will have to look after for a long time.

After filling them we could spend our time with others playing different sport games.

Then we returned to the houses to prepare for the long ­ awaited certificates and ceremony of good away party. When we came to the firehouse sat at the big table and we started our farewell dinner. It was very delicious. Everyone danced, ate, played and enjoyed the last moments together.

When the party was coming to an end the delicious cake was brought, then we began saying goodbye. Youth from Erasmus plus team wept, hugged himself, take a recent photo .

At the end of the ceremony we started dancing Belgian dance.

Then we went home. Nobody will forget that day and all the moments with these wonderful people .
