At the end of the day we had ‘Night for our cultural indentity’. During the evening we had possibility to present to others what makes us ‘Me/Myself’ – my values, my hobbies, my tastes, my  causes… Is it traditional music or maybe rock culture/heavy metal?  Maybe I am  really a “typical” person from my country or maybe I don’t fit so well into that box…We were encouraged to ask from ourselves: ‘What are the layers that compose my individual cultural identity?’ We had a nice and relaxing evening with music, good food & drinks and  cosy chatting with new friends! After a long day we were SO ready to go to sleep! Five days still left in this training!
