The 8th Day
Go
home bus, you're drunk! Or the 8th day of Shopping list. Our 8th day
of Shopping list started very early when everyone had breakfast and
went from Vila Cristina to the train station where a new shiny white
bus was waiting to take us to Sinaia, Peleş castle, Bran and Braşov.
After a few attempts of trying to drive out of Busteni, our bus broke
down and our group had to separate into two groups and go in
different busses. First place we visited was Peleş castle in Sinaia,
where we got a tour and took pictures in the castle garden. Later we
had some free time for souvenirs. Second on our list was Bran. After
arriving, all participants had a short "Men-ergizer" from
the Lithuanian team girls and later we started our main activity. We
we're all wearing the project uniform-green T-shirts, so our group
would differ from other people. We were talking to people in the main
street and market square next to Dracula castle, giving them flyers
which were made by our participants in the media workshop. The flyers
explained the importance of recycling, reusing, reducing materials
and consumtion. Later all participants had some free time in the
city, so most people went to visit the legendary Dracula castle. Our
third destination was Braşov. We were giving out flyers and hanging
posters in the main city square and street, talking to local people
and tourists. We also had a fun energizer lead by the one and only
Tolea. The workshop was about Dracula and we had a mini-drama in the
main square of Braşov. Later we had a short tour in the city and had
some free time to explore it ourselves. After Braşov we returned to
Buşteni, had dinner and gathered for the last energizer (given by
the Lithuanian team) and the evaluation of the whole project. Our
last evening was mellow. People were sitting together, watching funny
moments from the video making workshops, saying their goodbyes to
each other and to Buşteni. But there is one word in the air to keep
the spirit of Shopping list alive. And that word is.... REUNION? :))
The 7th Day
A
HARD WORKING DAY…
The
Portuguese day started with sleepy people… the group went to
Chromatic pub last night, so you can guess... ice breaking! To get
everyone ready for the hard work, there was a dynamic energizer. The
day was dedicated to group work in order to finish the tasks assigned
the day before which was to produce posters, flyers, videos and a
catalogue, to show the learning results of this Youth Exchange
project.
After
dinner the final results of the 4 different teams were displayed to
the all group. And how great they were! Then there was the revelation
of the secret friend, which was quite different from normal:
2
people had each 2 secret friends... how did it happen?
The
day was finished with a night out at a local pub where we had a lot
of fun dancing and interacting with the local community.

The 6th Day
Again, the day wakes up cloudy. The sun here is an utopia...
After having our typical Romanian breakfast, we begun the work day with an energiser called "living sculptures", and then... let's go to work!
During all the morning we were focused on the first workshop about "4R" (Reduce, Recycle, Reuse and Refuse), that started with 4 big papers imitating a facebook wall, one for each concept, and the participants could explain their ideas about it. Later, we worked in groups, with one sentence for each group and we had to discuss about it and find some ideas to improve the situation that it was described in the sentences.
The last activity in the morning was to create a project as a fishing market. Each group chose a kind of fish to promote the project using it.
After the lunch we started to manage our campaign. To do this we separated in 4 groups (2 for videos, posters and flyers, and catalogue). Starting with a brain storming to get some ideas we continued like this during all the afternoon.
And later: ROMANIAN NIGHT! Everyone enjoyed the moment trying food and wines. We sang, we laughed, we ate, we drunk. Definitely, a night to remember for all our lives.
And only one more thing to say...
WE ARE ROMANIANS!!! :)

The 5th Day
Day
5 started with a headache… Monika's and Filip's birthday party was
excellent (with the exeption of a few sprained ankles in Latvian and
Lithuanian team). Since the night was so lively, most of the people
arrived a bit late for the first activity, which didn't make the
hosts extremely happy. Consequently, we experienced the most
interesting energizer in the past few days – cleaning the mess we
made yesterday. After a coffee or two, we managed to wake up and
start the activities. The morning and afternoon activities today
required some acting and drawing skills. We became Tarzans, Barbies,
bear hunters and many other interesting creatures for a day. Some
people really accepted their new personalities, especially Gonzalo
(or should we say Gonzalita? .) Through the activities we managed
to select only 10 things that are essential in our lives and learned
how to behave responsibly as consumers. The evening was very
interesting, we had a lot of fun… There was a Turkish Raki,
Spanish Sangria, Lithuanian Pig Ears and Italian Pasta. We love
intercultural nights

The 4th Day
Yo,
yo, yo! The fourth day started with the most perfect energizer one
can imagine. Yes, you’re not wrong — it’s thanks to Latvians
(and some other nations)
Inspired
by the heavy shower outside, we all together tried to save the
Rainforest. Divided into groups representing different interests,
like the government, a tribe, companies with different social
attitudes, and a group of world-savers, we tried to cooperate in
order to meet their needs. It didn’t go as well as one would like
to.
Chuck
Norris is nothing in comparison to McGaver. And we are all
McGavers!!! Or do you have any other better word to describe groups
of people making UFOs out of balloons, sticks, tape, paper sheets,
and a small string to protect an egg from falling of 5 m
height?!
And
then the discussions… We bet there’s hardly anyone left not
thinking about such issues like nuclear power plants, fast food,
brands, recycling. Different opinions, positions, attitudes,
situations, and ideas were floating in the air, showing us that
cultural, geographical, social, and all other kinds of diversities
step back when it comes to that sort of issues.
This
evening was special for several purposes, one being the Hobby Night,
and the others — Monika’s and Filip’s birthday parties.
While the night was still young, Lithuanian girls pleased us with
some of the best Lithuanian and not-so-much Lithuanian songs, but
later on Jose Maria took over by gathering citizens, wolves, witches,
and some other creatures for a “battle”. And those who couldn’t
fall asleep were obviously grateful to Kaktuss for his Book Readers’
Club — a once-in-life-time opportunity to speak about your
favourite book whether it is Kama Sutra, Pinocchio, Twilight, Cat in
Boots, and many more.
