On my way to CSA 2016

Saturday - 02.07.

Euro is still on, Germany has won - what a game! I was thinking about my friend Fabian and happy he will be! Of course, it was the right time to think what to pack because I have to be ready for 10 days of adventure called Centropa Summer Academy. What does that mean? It means 10 days of walking and sightseeing, talking to other teachers, watching films, exchange experiences and much more...

Vienna, Prague and Berlin - three beautiful cities! What more I could ask? Maybe nice weather...? :)

#CSA2016 - here I come!

First Day Of CSA 2016 -Vienna

Today we started the CSA 2016 in Vienna. We met after a long night, but it was great and most of all- inspiring.

I would like to share one activity we were given as an ice breaker.

We were given a worksheet that enforced us to meet people outside our comfort zone!

There were nine very short ativities such as "Find someone from another country ask his name,country and get his signature

Then 'get a selfie with another teacher.. etc.
