    Victoria - France (13 years old)

    I was in the Tiger team. With my French friend Carla Maria, we chose the old typical Alsacian house. It's half a timber house. My role in the team was to choose the positions in the photo so that it is funny. Sami, another French boy took this photo. We are very happy because our photo was the winner of the activity! We had some macarons! They were delicious.

    Célia - France (13 years old)

    I was in the fifth team the penguins. With the team we chose la Petite France with the three towers behind. My role in the team was to paose for the picture and chose the place for the picture. I think it's very cool because we could talk with other people from different countries, practice speaking English to better understand and speak. It's a good experience to live.

    What I thought of this activity is that we could communicate and that it was fun.

    Serena - France

    For the selfie tour game, I was in the group of the kangaroos; we choose to take a selfie in front of the museum of l’Œuvre Notre-Dame; we imitated the statues above on the monument. Then we took a selfie in front of an Alsatian typical shop with storks and a photo on the Gutenberg Square. My role in the team was to ask people what monuments there were around and to take pictures of Strasbourg.

    A/ Selfie Tour
    1. I was in the Simba team.
    2. we chose the cathedral, typical shops and the little train. We chose the cathedral because it is the most representative place of Strasbourg for us, we imitated the statues at the entrance, there were 8 statues, we imitated 7 of them because there were 7 of us, I think we finally chose the photo of the cathedral.
    3. in the team we tried to find the perfect monument for the pictures.
    4.the activity was good because we could communicate by speaking English with the others. It was fun and artistic.

    Amine-Corsica

    For the selfie tour game I was in the dolphin team, we chose to take a selfie in front of the cathedral and we also took a selfie in front of the bridge where there was the riverboat. My role was to take the selfie. We didn't do any particular stage reading, this activity was fun, it was a good first contact with other people from other groups. I was with two Spaniards, two Greeks and a German. I pretended to ask Marcu Andria in marriage with one knee on the ground There was the humorous side because I pretended to ask Marcu Andria in marriage when he was also a boy. We didn't win but it was fun and also we decided to give our chocolates to a homeless person.

    ✧Clara, Spain (Selfie's contest!)✧ 16 years

    I was in the Tiger group too, we made groups in which all nationalities were involved. I got to work with two Greeks, two French and one German, as well as my Spanish partner, Sara. I met really cool people that day, our very first contact with the rest of the countries. We could take really amazing photos taking the landscape, culture and originality in account and out of three photos we took, we chose this one and won the competition. We were given chocolates and macarons, but it was very nice of the teachers to also give chocolates to the other groups, appreciating the work we all did. We could practice our english and the fact that we were capable to comunicate was pretty cool. I loved the experience! Thanks to the Erasmus+ for giving us this oportunity! :)

    Katia -Greece

    In this activity , I was a member of the kangaroo team. All of us were divided into groups, so we worked alongside students from all countries. I had a lot of fun with my team while taking the photos, even though it was kind of embarrassing at first because a lot of strangers were staring at us. Despite that, it was a great experience.

    Vasiliki F. - Greece

    After our visit to the European Parliament, we took a walk around Parc De L'orangerie, and then we ate all together with the French, German, and Spanish students. In the afternoon, we visited the Cathedral, where we were split into 7 groups, and we had a selfie contest, basically one hour in order for us to take as many pictures as we wanted, and then choose the best one to submit. The best one's team would win macarons, while the others won chocolates. The only rule was that we were obligated to be as creative as possible. It was a really fun activity, and I personally enjoyed every bit of it very much. We got to know students from other countries and come together with them in order to create amazing results!!
