Day 14 – The Berlin Wall and New Connections

On Day 14, we had the opportunity to meet with Bogdan from AgniConnect, who happened to be in Berlin at the same time as us. It was a great chance to spend some time together and continue building connections beyond our group. We decided to explore one of Berlin’s most famous landmarks and headed towards the Berlin Wall.

While walking along the remaining sections of the Wall, we admired the colourful graffiti and the many different artworks painted across it. The Berlin Wall was built in 1961 and divided East and West Berlin for almost 30 years, becoming one of the strongest symbols of the Cold War and the division between East and West. After its fall in 1989, parts of the Wall were preserved, and today they serve as a reminder of the city’s history while also being transformed into a space for art and creativity. Seeing the graffiti in person made us appreciate how something that once represented separation can now be a place where people express themselves and connect through art.

After exploring the Wall, we walked towards the nearby river, where we took some time to relax and enjoy the peaceful atmosphere. As the sun began to set, the view became even more beautiful, giving us a perfect moment to stop, admire the scenery, and enjoy each other’s company. It was a calm and memorable way to end our time together in Berlin.

At the end of the day, we said goodbye to Bogdan and reflected on the experiences we had shared during our stay. We then started making plans for the next part of our journey, as our next destination would be Katowice, Poland. With another city waiting for us, we ended the day feeling excited about what was still to come and grateful for everything Berlin had given us.

Day 13 – Exploring Berlin and Reflecting Together

On Day 13, we continued discovering Berlin and decided to visit the famous former US Army Checkpoint Charlie. We were curious to learn more about the place and its importance in the history of the city. While there, we read about its past and discovered that Checkpoint Charlie was one of the main crossing points between East and West Berlin during the Cold War. It became an important symbol of the division of Berlin and the tensions between the United States and the Soviet Union. Learning about this history while standing in the place where many important events took place made the visit more interesting and meaningful for us.

After spending some time exploring the area and learning about its history, we decided to make our way back to the venue. The weather was starting to change, and it was becoming colder, so we thought it would be better to spend the rest of the afternoon somewhere warm. Once we got back, we relaxed together and played different games. It was a nice opportunity to have fun, laugh together, and enjoy some free time after a day of exploring the city.

As the day came to an end, we continued working on our journals. We took some quiet time to think about the experiences of the day, the places we had visited, and everything we had learned. Writing in our journals gave us the opportunity to reflect not only on the activities but also on how we were feeling throughout the project and how our experiences in Berlin were adding to our journey. Overall, Day 13 was a good balance between discovering the history of Berlin, spending quality time together, and taking a moment to reflect.

Day 12 – Saying Goodbye to Amsterdam and Arriving in Berlin

Day 12 was a day of transitions, as we had to say goodbye to Amsterdam and begin the next chapter of our journey in Berlin. During our last walk around Amsterdam, we came across two people surfing in the canals. It was such an unexpected and fun sight, and we had a nice conversation with them before continuing our walk.

Afterwards, we headed to the train station and started our journey to Berlin. The train ride was very pleasant, giving us some time to relax and enjoy the changing scenery along the way. Once we arrived in Berlin and settled in at the venue, we went for a walk around our new neighbourhood and started getting familiar with our surroundings.

At the end of the day, we sat together and made plans for our entire stay in Berlin. We also took some time for personal reflection and wrote in our journals, thinking about the experiences we had already shared and what we were looking forward to in the days ahead. It was a calm and meaningful way to end the day, closing one chapter in Amsterdam while opening a new one in Berlin.

Day 11
Before telling you about our day, we'd like to share the story of the artist whose works we explored today.

Many people visit the Van Gogh Museum expecting to see The Starry Night. We did too. (ups....) However, that masterpiece has been part of the Museum of Modern Art (MoMA) in New York since 1941 (Bad news for you...) and is rarely, if ever, loaned to other museums. Instead, we discovered many other paintings that tell the story of Vincent van Gogh's life.

Here's a short timeline that helped us understand the man behind the paintings:

1853 - Vincent van Gogh was born in Zundert, the Netherlands. His younger brother, Theo, would become the person who supported him throughout his life.

1869-1876 - Vincent worked as an art dealer, while Theo later followed a similar career. Through their jobs, both became familiar with the art world and built connections with artists and collectors.

1886 - Vincent moved to Paris, where he lived with Theo. Sharing the apartment wasn't always easy. Theo often described Vincent as a difficult roommate, but he never stopped believing in his brother's talent. During this period, Vincent met Impressionist painters, and his style became much brighter and more colourful.

1888 - Vincent moved to Arles, in the south of France. This was one of his most productive periods, often completing almost one painting every day.

1888 - After a serious argument with fellow artist Paul Gauguin and during a period of mental distress, Vincent cut off part of his left ear.

1889 - Vincent admitted himself voluntarily to the psychiatric hospital in Saint-Rémy-de-Provence. Even there, he continued painting some of his best-known works.

1890 - Vincent died after shooting himself in the chest at the age of 37. During his lifetime, he sold very few paintings and never experienced the recognition his work would later receive.

After Vincent's death, Theo continued promoting his brother's work, but he passed away only a few months later. It was Theo's wife, Johanna van Gogh-Bonger, who carefully preserved the collection, organized exhibitions, and helped introduce Vincent's paintings to the world. Without her dedication, Van Gogh might never have become one of history's most celebrated artists.

After visiting the museum, our group split up for the afternoon. Some of us continued exploring Amsterdam, while others rented bikes and cycled all the way towards The Hague, enjoying another side of the Netherlands.

In the evening, we met again for our final reflection about our days in the Netherlands. Tomorrow, a new chapter begins as we continue our journey towards Berlin, Germany.

DAY 10
Our first day in Amsterdam started with an unexpected meeting. Right after arriving, we met another group from Spain who were also travelling with DiscoverEU. It was a nice surprise and a great chance to meet other young people sharing the same experience.

On our way to the venue, we walked along Amsterdam’s famous canals and enjoyed the city’s unique architecture and atmosphere. Once we arrived, we discussed the places we wanted to visit during our days in Amsterdam and decided to start with the Rijksmuseum.

At the museum, we discovered some of the most famous Dutch artworks, including Rembrandt’s The Night Watch and Vermeer’s The Milkmaid. We also explored different collections showing Dutch art, history and culture.

After the museum, we went to a park where we relaxed, played cards and spent some time together. We also talked with some locals and asked them for recommendations about other interesting places to see around the city.

Later, we went for a swim at a public swimming spot along the canals. It was a really fun experience and definitely one of the highlights of the day.

We ended our day by exploring Amsterdam’s city centre, enjoying the streets, canals and atmosphere of the city.

Another day of DiscoverEU, another city explored, and many new connections made along the way.

Day 9 - A change of plans led us somewhere new

Did you know that Brussels is home to the largest number of EU institutions, making it one of the main places where decisions affecting over 400 million European citizens are discussed every day?
After spending quite some time trying to book the popular 3.5-hour train from Paris to Amsterdam, we realized it was fully booked. This being said, we changed our route and turned the day into an opportunity to discover Brussels.

We arrived around 11:30 and were welcomed by one of the members of the AgniConnect informal group, who joined us for the day.

Our first stop was the House of European History, where we explored the events, ideas and people that shaped today's Europe. Walking through the exhibition helped us better understand how conflicts, cooperation and social changes influenced the development of the European Union.

Later, we visited the Parlamentarium, the European Parliament's visitor centre. One part that especially caught our attention was the immersive presentation about democratic elections and citizen participation. We also enjoyed the large historical timeline showing key moments that shaped Europe, from major conflicts and scientific discoveries to the creation of the European Union.

In the evening, we continued our journey and finally arrived in Amsterdam. As we walked through the city for the first time, the canals, narrow houses and peaceful atmosphere gave us a great first impression of what would become our next stop on this DiscoverEU adventure.

Day 8, Journal about learning how Parisians slow down 🏊☀️

Today felt different. Before heading out, we had our morning reflection session and looked back at everything we had experienced in the past days.

With another hot summer day ahead, we noticed many locals relaxing along the Canal Saint-Martin, chatting with friends, having picnics, reading books, or simply enjoying the shade by the water. We also discovered that, during the summer, swimming is allowed only in designated supervised areas and only during specific opening hours, depending on water quality and safety conditions. The City of Paris regularly monitors the water before opening these areas to the public.

After checking the rules, we joined them for a refreshing swim. It was a different way to experience Paris, not through monuments, but through the everyday life of the people who live here.

As the afternoon became cooler, we headed to Sacré-Cœur. After visiting the basilica, we walked through the streets of Montmartre before continuing to the Arc de Triomphe. To finish the day, we rented bikes and cycled back to our hostel, seeing another side of the city along the way.

Aha moment of the day: travelling is not only about ticking famous landmarks off a list. Sometimes, understanding a city means living it the way its people do, even if only for a day. ;)

Day 7 – Looking over Paris from above

Did you know that the Eiffel Tower was the tallest structure in the world for 41 years, until the Chrysler Building was completed in 1930? To keep it protected from rust, it is also repainted about every seven years using around 60 tonnes of paint, and over the years it has worn several different shades, from reddish brown to the bronze colour we see today.

Today was all about discovering the landmarks that make Paris so special.

We started the morning at Notre-Dame, where we joined the queue and had the chance to visit the cathedral from the inside. Standing beneath its high Gothic ceilings made us realise how much history this place has witnessed over the centuries.

Our next stop was the Louvre. We admired the museum and its famous glass pyramid before continuing towards the highlight of the day.
From there, we headed to the Eiffel Tower, where we had the chance to meet up with some French friends from previous projects. It was great catching up, sharing stories, and seeing each other again after so long.

After saying goodbye, it was finally time to go up the Eiffel Tower.

Standing 325 metres above Paris, on the top of the Eiffel Tower, the view was simply unforgettable. We also visited the recreated office of Gustave Eiffel, where the engineer once welcomed guests and worked high above the city that his tower would later become the symbol of.

As the evening arrived, we walked to Trocadéro to watch the sunset. At 10:00 PM, the Eiffel Tower came to life with its sparkling lights, bringing a perfect ending to another day of our DiscoverEU journey.

Every city has its symbols, but today reminded us that the stories behind them are just as fascinating as the views they offer.
