The 1st and the 2nd Days of the Meeting: Greeting, Tasting and Seeing
We spent the first long awaited day with guests from Germany. We familiarized with each other, shared our smiles and warmness in the gymnasium's corridors, during the cooking, beside the Eternal fire credence, while we were going up on a funicular and even on the roof of Christ's Resurrection church.We tried out our strength not only during kneading process in the kitchen, but in a bowling alley too. It was the day when we boosted so much positive energy and made friends. Erika Tūgaudytė
