Farewell Weekend 2019
by RYE 2240 | January 29, 2023 | Farewell Weekend | 0 Comments
V stredu 19.6.2019 sa vo Valticiach začala schádzať skupina výmenných študentov. Niektorý so smútkom keďže to bol posledný skupinový výlet výmenných študentov pred ich návratom domov, väčšina však s nadšením že sa môžu ešte raz stretnúť po hromade a najmä s obavami ako po celom roku jedenia halušiek, horaliek a pitia kofoly zvládnu dni plné športových aktivít. Večer sa niesol v pohodovom znení – zahrali sme si hru “Capture the flag”, tí aktívnejší si potom dali basketbalový zápas, ostatní si pospevovali pri hre gitár.

Rotary youth exchange during the Coronavirus pandemic certainly hasn’t been a “normal” exchange and it definitely has not been an easy one. I was fortunate to have experienced at least 2 months of “normal life” on exchange and Ski-Week before Coronavirus containment measures came into effect and we went into the first lockdown…
Ups and downs
by Lochlan Clarke | January 20, 2021 | Long Term, Slovakia | 0 Comments
This year has had many ups and down, there have been many experiences that me and many other students sadly missed out on. Despite that this year has been amazing, I have learnt many new things and seen some amazing sights, from castles, Slovak culture, buildings, churches, and views from mountain tops. Some of my most cherished memories are those spent with friends and family…
