Art for inclusion

Hello everyone, we are Yasmine and Madalina, 2 students of Sandro Pertini high school (in Alatri, Lazio). Our erasmus’ trip started in 2019. In that year the project was at its best, students from all over the partner countries arrived here in Alatri. In November of that year Madalina hosted a Dutch student while Yasmine couldn’t due to personal reasons but she did participate in the project. 

This school year we were able to go to La Laguna, Tenerife.

The experience lasted one week (from 14th november to 20th november 2021) and we were hosted by some of the students of I.E.S La laguna.

The erasmus project Art for Inclusion’s sake is an amazing project that made us improve as people, and it made our cultures knowledge bigger (when we were in Tenerife we visited a lot of attractions and different cities and we tried a lot of typical foods) and we had a new vision of the world (the population here has a whole different mentality from ours, they were all super kind and happy, they didn’t care at all and they didn’t have stereotypes).

The activities were held both in the high school and outside, for example we went to the National Park of Teide. We also did Water sports and they were really enjoyable.

During the experience we felt really comfortable with our host families, they made us feel at home. We created a strong bond with almost all of the exchange and Spanish students, and with some of the teachers too.

We think that everyone should experience this trip at least once a life because it is an incredible trip that changes your life. We will keep these memories like a treasure. We can’t wait to come back there and make more memories with all of our friends and with our Spanish families.

Thanks for the attention.

Yasmine and Madalina from Italy.
