Youthpass

Youthpass

Youthpass is available for projects funded by Erasmus+ Youth in Action and Youth in Action programmes. With Youthpass the participants of these projects can describe what they have done and show what they have learnt. Youthpass is part of the European Commission’s strategy to foster the recognition of non-formal learning. All participants of our Youthexchange learned about the Youthpass. This blog is to remind us about the importance of the Youthpass. Continue reading

Day 6: European people

Day 6: European people

We woke up really early, early this morning to get to the Europa Park. It´s a fun park in Rust near to Freiburg and it shows different parts of Europe. We only had 30 minutes to have breakfast and to get our things ready. We sang for Thorgeir because of his birthday, maybe it sounded bad because we were all a bit tired. We walked very fast to the train station to go to Freiburg. There we had to change our trains to get to our final train. At 9.00am we were at the Europa Park. In the next three hours we explored the park and tried the different attractions. Some of us were a bit scared in the rollercoasters. At 12am we had lunch that we bought yesterday in our international groups because this morning was not enough time to make lunch packets. Continue reading

Day 4 – Lost people – 15th August, 2014

Day 4 – Lost people – 15th August, 2014

After the breakfast the whole group met to pray and praise The Lord. We played some games prepared by the Icelandic group which has been a lot of fun. The task of the day was to reach people to think more about homeless and lost people. Small international groups were given a couple of different questions to ask random persons. When we arrived at the Youth Hostel we made a presentation of our results. There were a lot of different opinions and results. In the evening we will go for a walk on a beach nearby or in downtown Konstanz. It was a very hard day.
