31 of July We started day with reflection on a previous day. We talked what went wrong on hiking and what was good. Then we had first part of Pizza workshop. We were into teams and tried to follow the recipe. Fortunately we had enough Italians who guided us. In the afternoon we had a strategy game outside organized by Bulgarians. It needed cooperation and good memory. Also, one reaction game, when you needed to be quick and feel people around you. Then we continued with second part of pizza making. We needed to make a perfect circle, Alfonso was best of it because he is working in a pizza restaurant. But when we realized that round pizzas don't fit to square pans we just gave up and tried to fit dough on them. We made different flavored examples. Night ended with dances outside. I followed the party from other side of the glass, I felt sick and thought that deep sleep is the best cure I can have. 1 of August First day of August we had a second field trip in Tartu. We visited beverage factory A. Le Coq. We had a tour inside a factory and museum. Later on we got to know their assortment of products. After lunch in the old town we had free time to explore more the city and have a Sugar Hunt. Sugar Hunt task was to photograph advertisements inviting us consuming sugar. When we went back to Mammaste Germans started preparations for their intercultural night. Actually German dishes felt like Estonian food. Oh, and that drinking game they introduced. It is an insane game and really sporty. Usually those games don't need so much effort from you. 2 of August I don't remember was it on that day or days before (probably last opportunity) when Alessio made a short course about shooting proper videos. Anyway on Wednesday we needed those skills because we needed to record videos that make people give up using that amount of sugar they are doing today. Because mafia game was popular during our exchange our group decided to create Sugar Mafia story. Recording progress was funny but at the end we managed to make a video. During the evening we shot even more. Birgit and Berit got an idea how to widen the awareness of the dark side of sugar. So, foreigners speaking different languages was pretty influential I guess. Because most of the Bulgarians left the project one day earlier we needed to sum up the project while they are presented as well. Alessio had made great surveys about our project. Those questions were great and answers even better. Patrick, "Are you single?" and perfect circle jokes were accurate. 3 of August Last day was weird, it went quickly. In the morning we revealed our secret friends. Bulgarians left and it made project end real. We had Erasmus+ introduction and they told us how it is possible to write projects on our own. After the lunch we went back to lake to discuss new project ideas. Easiest part was finding partners because we wanted to include mainly our project countries. This time the weather wasn't so warm and lake water neither but it was nice to relax on the beach. After Põlva visit we cleaned the house and presented our project idea. We had a last sauna night but before we made a sugar scrub. This cocoa powder, oil and sugar mix was amazing skin smoother and it smelled irresistibly. We had a great time and celebrated Birgit's first successful project when randomly fire alarm started working. Nothing was burning but the system played a trick to us. Allar was ready to save us with fire extinguisher. Our farewell party was long and full of dances. 4 of August I had to wake up early in the morning. Usually I don't eat fat for breakfast but I was hungry and ate last evening's dinner. Sadly normal food wasn't left, only vegan pasta. But hellyeah, it was the pest pasta I have ever eaten, it was so tasteful. We left the place with Spanish. It was a shitty weather once again but taxy picked us up and soon we were in the bus station. My bus ride to Tallinn was sleepy. Moreover, I had a cought and I felt really exhausted and down. Spanish people left in Airport and I could't have a proper opportunity to say goodbye to them. Anyway, soon I was at home and rested from intense period. I thought that I have now free time until university starts but life had another plans 😃 Thank you for capturing those days Alessio. Thanks to him we have a lot of high quality photos. Thank you Berit, Monika, Viktoria, Julia, Lennart and Romet as well. I used your photos in my blog as well. It is worth mentioning Birgit's effort on that project. Without her we wouldn't have "Oh My Sugar!" project at all 😊
