Where do you live?

Dear Danuta,

Please send me a list with the names of the cities or villages where all the partners come from.

I will look for low-cost routes - my son has a database with low cost carriers in Europe and I can spend a day checking the connections and the prices, so that we could mention all the right details in the application form. I could suggest 4 places to meet, according to the availability of the flights.

I suggest that one of the meetings to be in Bucharest, as we have natural sciences museums and a botanical garden - we might use them for our project. We could organize an event in Bucharest, to disseminate the results of the project and to meet with all the partners, as well as potential partners for a future project (NGOs, other schools etc.)

Keep in touch.

Maria

Dear Maria,
Don't hesitate and write your question on the blog. I am very glad that you are so helpful. Your email reminded me that I don't know everybody's location. Caroline, please, maybe a map on our blog would be of great value?
As for Poland:
Our home town is Jastrzebie Zdroj - two nearby airports are in Katowice and Cracow / Krakow. We can get there by car, 2hrs. The airport in Warsaw, our capital city, requires taking a train to Katowice, then a bus to Jastrzebie.
The Czech rep.
On the other hand, Jastrzebie, Poland is only 2 hours by car/ by train from Olomouc, the Czech republic, where Ivana lives. In fact, Ivana's school is in Dub nad Moravou, the village 20 minutes by car from Olomouc.
We can discuss with Ivana the possibility of combining your visit to both our schools during one trip only.
Sweden
Caroline's nearest airport is in Kalmar. In May 2008 Ivana travelled by bus to Copenhagen, then by train to Kalmar. I took a plane from Cracow to Stockholm and then another one to Kalmar.
Julia, Bernie and Turkay, please let us know how we can get to your schools.

KRAM,

Danuta
