    MY ERASMUS+ PROJECT EXPERIENCE

    I’d never had a travelling experience without my parents before. My parents, my brother and I used
    to go somewhere and they would always speak for us and I’d never had the chance to speak English
    with a foreigner, at least with one my age. We would see magnificent places but since I was too little
    at that time, I wasn’t aware of their beauty.

    Participating in an Erasmus+ Project broadened my horizon.

    The whole experience was just beautiful. I got to meet lots of foreigners my age and to talk with
    them. They were super nice and so welcoming. I am vegan and it is a hassle not to come across with
    judgy ideas concerning my life style. However this time it wasn’t hard at all because my host and his
    family changed their eating habits for me during the week I was there. His mother even prepared a
    bag full of snacks for me to take to the airport. What a gesture! It was a great platform to learn about
    different cultures and countries. We had a game where we chose a word and each country had to say
    it in their language, this way we saw the differences between our languages. We challenged each
    other to say different words from each country. Also, I got to meet people with same interests as
    mine and that was a huge ice breaker. We talked non stop and everybody was so excited about the
    whole experience which made our trip more and more fun.

    Being far from home, I wasn’t a part of my family like I was in my other trips to abroad but an
    independent teenager who could find his own way. At least, I felt like one.

    As I said before, I’d never had the oppurtunity to speak English except in English classes. Having had
    to communicate, I was obliged to speak English. I was stressed out at first, thinking that I couldn’t but
    then I realised that the main part of the deal was speaking English and thus getting on the same page
    with other people from different cultures whose mother language wasn’t English. I had to express
    myself in different situations. I strongly believe that this project helped me to improve my speaking
    level.

    During the presentations, each country’s students got to prepare something about water
    consumption habits in general and the water sources in their country. As Turkey, we had three pieces
    of work and one was a short film that I shot about our water consumpiton habits. I’m into cinema
    and learning about it for a long time now. However this one was my first short film. I’d been willing to
    shot one and this one was not the best but I’m happy that I started my career for this cause and that
    I could give people some trivias about animal industry’s effect on water pollution.

    The island we stayed in was heavenly. I’d never been to such place. The idea of it being right in the
    middle of the ocean was really breathtaking. Coupled with the beautiful places we saw, my eyes
    were delighted. Instead of seeing lots of historical places, being in the nature was much better. We
    had every experience we could think of: our pants got wet in ocean water, we were sitting in hot
    spring water while it was cold and raining heavily outside, we walked (which was the part I liked the
    most, beacuse we always got to talk more) and got camouflaged in green. We saw a rainbow, its
    colours could be clearly perceived. It seemed as if there was a gene waiting for us with a sack full of
    golf right under the rainbow. I wish we had time to look for where it ended.

    In conclusion, although we weren’t in our classes listening to our teacher, sitting for forty minutes
    and not moving, this experience was actually really instructive and we learned lots of things. I’m
    content that I had the chance to see all of this.
