Youth Exchange Open Sounds in Poland

Nasutow, Poland. 28 June to 7 July

Open Sounds was an Exchange about MUSIC. 5 young greeks had the possibility to participate of the exchange.

4 countries take part of it: Poland, France, Spain and Greece.

Nasutow it’s a magical place in the countryside of Lublin. In the middle of the green, we could enjoy workshops related with composition, art, theatre and many activities regarding with music and art

The Greek group was in charge of the organisation of one of the nights. We dance, sing and introduce the great greek food. The video was part of the presentation of Greek night, with a touch of parody

Lazaros, Varbara, Stella, Maria and Hlektra were the young group who went to Poland with Lucia, one of the EVS Volunteers, This Exchange it was for young people between 15 and 18 years. So it was an opportunity to exchange cultures, to communicate in a foreign language and interact with others.

Also, after “Open Sounds” many of the guys were pushed and motivated about music and composition. Fortunately, in the greek group all of the guys were “little musicians”

This last photo is from the Greek night that was a complete surprise and performance. After that, the greek dance started….
