In April 2014 I had the opportunity to go Italy, thanks to the Comenius Project and my teacher Adriana, who was really kind and she invited me to join this programme.  Our flight to Rome from Budapest was quite pleasant, and short. On our very first day we went to Liceo Scientifico Bruno Touschek in Grottaferrata, where we met with our hosts’ awesome classmates, and after a few hours we had a whole free afternoon and evening. On Wednesday the Italian teachers and the headmistress welcomed us to their school, and they showed us around the school.  In the afternoon we met with officials at the Town Hall and after that we visited the Grottaferrata Abbey. On the next morning, we had a Volleyball tournament in the school, around noon every nation gave their presentations on the environmental project. After 1 PM we had a free afternoon and evening, some of us visited the Vatican. On Friday we went on a sightseeing tour in Rome, we visited Colosseum, Roman Forum, Campidoglio, Altare della Patria, Trevi Fountain. In the evening there was a big farewell ceremony, we watched videos and photos that were taken in Spain, Hungary, Latvian, Finland, and Italy. It was great to see pictures of the group and how close we got and how many friendships have started. On Saturday,  sadly we had to leave, and we flew back to Budapest. I really enjoyed my time in Italy; we already started talking about our next meeting in the near future. I would like to thank again my host, Mario and his family for being so nice with me. I would also like to thank the Italian students for the programmes and for the whole group! This will stay as an everlasting experience!
