The kick-off day!

So, here are we now – on the top of the mountain in the beautiful village Velventos, Greece. 7 nationalities, 10 days to go and 1 mission – to have fun in breaking our stereotypes and to make our Balkan heARTs beat faster in one rhythm. While the sun was making its way over the mountain, we were our way to the Culture Community Center of the village.
“Kalimera” was the first thing we heard from the Mayor who managed to find a spare time in his busy agenda to drop and welcome us. Standing there, talking with a calm and nice voice he actually made us feeling the worldwide known Greek hospitality.
Well, we have to admit it – it was a hard day to follow. We started by getting know each other and then, in few minutes, we were no longer strangers. The games were following one after another – “Zig, Zag, Zuk”, “Repeat Your Fellows’ Name”, “Kiss the Rabbit”, “Save the Egg”, “The Thin Yellow Line”, “The Real Me”……The last game was called “The Mortal Kiss”. Now, we are searching for someone who is probably sneezing behind your back with a piece of paper in his/her pocket that has your name written on it with the only desire to give you a mortal kiss. Sweet dreams, if you can…..
