Between 30.09-06.10.2012 we visited students, teachers and all the other in Turkey. The trip was tiring but also very interesting. On the way to Turkey from the windows of the plane we could see the landscape from a bird's eye of other countries. We also saw the Austrian airport. Hot and stuffy air, quite different climate-first impression after leaving the airport in Turkey. In Poland, the fall, and there's midsummer.
On Monday, October 1, in which the school is located in Kocaeli, meeting integration and familiarization of teachers and students participating in the project. The meeting resulted in mutual sympathy. The school is slightly different from Polish schools.
Very clearly marked by school children - all wearing uniforms. We participated in the lessons taught in Turkish, zapoznawaliśmy with students. It's unbelievable how all these people are kind and hospitable. Then everyone was invited by the Turkish whole teaching staff for refreshments. The dishes were delicious. Significantly different from Polish. Very sweet cakes, soups and other dishes heavily seasoned. It was worth a try dishes other country, with a completely different culture. Then we all went for a short walk to "Seka Park'u" and a Izmitu. We saw one of the many mosques and "Vessel and Submarine Museum" - a museum in a submarine. The day was very tiring.
Tuesday 2 October we went to the museum of the earthquake - "Adapazari Earthquake Museum". We raised a lot of messages there and met threat to Turkey for many years. We also did a walk on the beach, and after dinner we went to the top of Kartepe. To be at the top we had a lot of effort. Fatigue was incredible, but it was worth it. The views from the top are spectacular. In the evening, the event was held, which was attended by a number of Turkish teachers, teachers and students from other countries such as Spain, Germany, Portugal and Greece and Turkish students. Each country presented a dance
specific to your state or sing a song. At the end the students learned other dances of their country. What was most impressed with all the dance presented by the Spaniard. It was great fun and the face of every person It showed a smile.
Wednesday was the most tiring day and the most interesting. After a long journey we arrived in Istanbul. First, we visited a typical Turkish bazaar and we were impressed by its diversity. In addition to fruits and vegetables available in Poland, you can buy pomegranates, figs, oranges, peaches, olives and countless spices. You have to remember the tradition of bargaining because the initial price is never final. Turkish street, it's kind of tricky microcosm. Circulate everywhere and Turkish tea seller pretzels, caked with sesame seeds. Turkish flag waving. Five times a day with a loud voice coming minaret muezzin calling to prayer, you feel that these words have incredible power, but none of us knew what it really means. Traffic is a real challenge - the only rule is no rules, so nervous in fact the sound of horns is not silent. Later we visited the Hagia Sophia. Amazing views from outside and inside, and beautiful decorations on the walls attracted our attention. Next we went to the Blue Mosque, which is one of the last, and also the oldest known examples. "Classical period" of Islamic art in Turkey. After visiting these sites had the opportunity to go on a cruise on the Bosphorus. It was an amazing experience because we could then enjoy the spectacular views of Turkey.
On
the fourth day of his stay in Turkey held a farewell to all teachers and students involved in the project. All located there could admire Hagia Sophia model built before the students of the School of Tuchowicz. Then we all went to visit the authorities and the other school. We were received there with great affection. After a week of exploring and learning about Turkish culture, we had the opportunity to try a ride on water skis is famous for Kocaeli. After dinner, we said goodbye to the players coming back to their homes.
The fifth and last day of adventures in this beautiful country we went to Izmitu. There, while walking admired the beautiful buildings and scenery. Spent in this city for almost half the day.
After a wonderful week in Turkey, with a smile on his face, said goodbye to the teacher leading the visit and all that it was worth to travel such a long way to come in contact with, however, a different and unique culture which prevails in Turkey. Equipped with an "eye of the Prophet" to protect against envy and jealousy returned to Polish enriched with new knowledge and experience. From today, we are certain that Turkey will associate us with the joy of life, which is characterized by its people and their selfless need to help others.
