European Youth Forum 2011
The European Youth Forum 2011 took place in Berlin- Germany. Thirty international participants divided in five groups of five students each (ages 15-17) accompanied by five group leaders represented the following countries: Bulgaria, Georgia, Republic of Macedonia, Romania and Russia. It was held from 8 to 14 of August and in that period the participants made an excellent theater performance.
Our chapter had four representatives on this forum. Here’s what Ena has said about Day 5 in Berlin :
"Yesterday night after dinner, we went on an evening excursion to Potsdam, a small, beautiful German city, located just a few train stops from our hostel. The city is breathing with calmness, authenticity and royalty. It has the most beautiful palace we have ever seen, Schloss Sans Souci. An imposing park with beautiful statues and fountains surrounds it. The only comment we all have is that King Friedrich II really knew how to relax.
After a tour through the parks and gardens, we walked to the city centre of Potsdam, going through the Brandenburg Gate, which is smaller, but older than the one in Berlin. We found out that the city centre was the perfect place for giving out invitations to our Saturday Show. We had taken flyers and were handing them out to people we met. Before leaving, we stopped in a cute little cafe, to have a drink and talk about the impressions Potsdam left on us.
Today is our fourth and most pressured day of the EYF 2011. The final rehearsals for tomorrow’s theater show in the Kreativhaus are happening today. So we are all preparing our roles and giving our best to present them in the most convincing way possible. Our dearest theater expert, Martina is helping us improving our roles and preparing a real spectacle for Saturday. She is so patient, that she deserves a gold medal for working with young people. Our group leaders are also here to help us and we are all working together."
