Wednesday was the fifth of the six days of our Erasmus+ experience in Suceava. We knew the week was nearly over and therefore we lived this day to the fullest.

In the morning, we all got ready in our homes and later we gathered in the main hall of the host school as usual. Once we were all together, they divided us into various groups, depending on what we still had to do: some students had to finish their presentation and remained in their class while others went down to the IT room and carried out the creation of the Ebook on canva.

Once the workshop activities were over, we returned to the main hall where all of us wore a traditional Romanian shirt to celebrate an important Romanian holiday: Martisor (a sort of diminutive for Martie, the Romanian word for March) which is a holiday that symbolizes the arrival of spring.

And what better way to celebrate than dancing? We enjoyed traditional dances and music, both in groups and in pairs, both students and teachers.

In the end, we had some free time but later we all met at the Suceava fortress for a guided tour.  Once there, they explained to us that the fortress had been built to defend and control the city, which was at the time the capital of Moldavia, from Mongol and Ottoman incursions.  We then spent some time inside the citadel, where in addition to observing the displays of medieval armours and weapons, we could not miss a very heated snowball fight.

Later, we decided to spend the rest of the day wandering around the center of Suceava with our Romanian, Polish, Turkish, Spanish, and Greek friends. We knew that we had to live those moments in the best possible way because time flies, but memories last forever!
