NEW FRIENDSHIPS:
This project not only teaches us to take care for Nature and environment, you can also make new friends! Now we’re going to show you those new friendships that were made in Adana, Turkey.
On the 2nd of December, we (the Bulgarian team) traveled from Plovdiv, Bulgaria to Istanbul, Turkey.
The next day (03.12.2023) we got up early, had breakfast and the whole day we traveled to Adana. We checked in the hotel and we went to sleep.
On the next day (04.12.2023) we went to the school in Adana and we met the amazing students and teachers there. We went to Sabancı Merkez Camii, the biggest mosque in Adana. Then we went around Adana, walking and sightseeing a little bit.
On the next day (05.12.2023) we went to the school again to finish the logos for the project and then we went to have lunch at the shore of Mediterranean sea. The evening, we had free time and then we went to dinner where we had a great time.
On the 6th of December we went to the mall in Adana and we had enough time to shop and look around. We also went to the recycling center in Adana. After all of this we went to a restaurant where we had dinner and played games with the other students and we met a puppy and named it Fuffy.
There it was, the last day in Adana. We had to say bye to the students in the school, bye to the teachers and it was pretty sad. After we said our goodbye with them, we went to Mersin to the open mall. We looked around and after that we went to one last dinner in Adana and went back to the hotel.
On the 8th of December we went to see the beautiful Cappadocia and the underground city. It was so interesting learning about the history of those absolutely breathtaking places and seeing them in person. After the long day of sightseeing around Cappadocia, we went to the hotel and got ready for the Turkish nigh. The night was full of dance and fun.
The Turkish night
The next day we got up early and went to the station, said bye to the Turkish team, got in the busses and traveled back to Istanbul. We didn’t really do much, just traveled. We stopped and had dinner, and after a little while we arrived at the hotel in Istanbul.
The last night at the hotel, we spent it all together. We talked, laughed, took photos and so on. In the morning, we all traveled back to out countries and we got home. That week was one unforgettable experience and we miss you all a lot.
