“Participating in the project “Theater Meets Education” in Poland was an unforgettable experience. It was my first project where I got the chance to connect with people from Serbia, and I was truly happy about the friendships and bonds we created during those days. The atmosphere within the group was warm, open, and inspiring, which made every activity even more meaningful. Throughout the workshops, I learned a lot about improvisation and how to be more confident and relaxed in using my body while performing. It helped me step out of my comfort zone and embrace creative expression more freely. I gained valuable knowledge about creative tools and techniques that can be used in education, which I believe will be very useful in my future work with young people.

One of the most exciting moments was when we, as a smaller group, came together to create and perform our own theater piece. It was amazing to see how quickly we connected, shared ideas, and built something meaningful in such a short time. It was also amazing to see what the other groups created and applaud them for the work they put in to their performances. The performances were a beautiful reflection of our teamwork, creativity, and mutual support. I’m so very grateful for this opportunity and the people I met and shared this experience with. “
