Everything has an only the sausage has two

Time went by so fast, and now we’re almost done with our language trip. It feels like we just got here, but two weeks have already passed, and we’ve had so many adventures.

We’ve been lucky with the weather again, and today is no different as the sun is shining bright while we head to visit the next IT company, Nokia.

At Nokia, we went to their lab where they test and research different phone networks. It was really interesting to see how they do it.

After the lab tour, we had a little chat about the last two weeks. Everyone felt sad that it’s ending. We all had such a good time.

These past two weeks were amazing. I learned a lot, met new people, and had some cool experiences.

Looking back, I’m really happy I came on this trip. It was worth it. I can’t wait to see how I’ll use what I learned in the future.

Time flies here in Breslau

Days just fly by, don’t they? And lately, we’ve been through quite a bit. Let me tell you about our recent adventures.

So, on Monday, we went on a trip to Krakow. We took this FlixBus, about 3 hours of a ride. But, you know what? It was Easter Monday! Most shops were closed, and the city was super busy. Still, Krakow was really nice. We saw a bunch of stuff, grabbed a Krakauer sausage, and then it was back on the bus to Wroclaw.

Tuesday started with a visit to this EU Information Point in Wroclaw. It was kind of cool, learning about the EU and stuff. After that, we had some free time. So, me and a few buddies went up this church tower to check out the view.

On Wednesday, we went to Qulix, a software company in Wroclaw. Inside, it was busy and everyone seemed really focused on their work. We got to see how they make software, from coming up with ideas to putting them into action. It was really interesting to see how they do it all. I left feeling impressed and amazed by what they can do.

Im very excited for the last days of our trip. See you soon.

Having a good time

Hey my dear friends of the IT,

Just wanted to share some stuff about my time here in Breslau. It’s been really cool so far. We’ve been doing a lot of things, and I gotta say, time flies when you’re having fun.

So, we’ve been having English classes with George, who’s a real funny guy. He makes learning English kinda fun.

Last Saturday, we went to the zoo. The weather wasn’t great, a bit gray with some rain, but the aquarium there was super cool. I’m not a big zoo person, but the fish were awesome and some of them even very funny.

Then, on Friday, we did laser tag. I was so excited about it all week. The guy running it was really nice, he explained the rules, and then we split into groups and started playing. It was so much fun, but also really tiring. We were all pretty worn out by the end.

After laser tag, we had the rest of the day to ourselves. I went out with Tobi who really become a new friend of mine, Fanlai, Dzehaml and Timur and started the evening at this Italian place that Georgi recommended. Then we went bar-hopping, checking out the nightlife.

Saturday was chill. We just walked around, enjoying the weather and also some sightseeing. At the evening timur and me played some video games before we went to bed.

Overall, my time here in Breslau has been awesome. From English classes with George to zoo visits and laser tag, it’s been great. Can’t wait to see what else we get up to.

Catch you later

Exploring the city of Wrocław

On Tuesday, March 26th, our day began fresh and well-rested at 10 a.m. We arrived at the Avantis office with our English teacher, Georgi. Georgi originally comes from Georgia and has been accompanying language trips and similar events for about 13 years, primarily aiming to impart knowledge to young people in an open and communicative way.

During an English lesson by the Oder, we took a photo of our participants and Georgi, which I’ll attach below. After class, Dzhemal, Timur, Tobi (another participant in the language trip and an apprentice at the Helios Hospital Group), and I spent the break enjoying a delicious pizza.

Following the break, we jumped right into the „City Game“. We met in the Old Town with Anna, our coordinator, who briefed us on the rules. We formed four groups and had to complete various tasks related to the history of Wroclaw. This included taking pictures with the so-called „Krasnal Sisyphus Dwarfs“ and uncovering different pieces of information about the city – all without the aid of Google and the like.

After the game, Timur and I grabbed a bite to eat and relaxed for a bit, as the day had been quite exhausting. All in all, it was an exciting yet tiring day – but one filled with unforgettable experiences and valuable lessons.
