It was crazy, intense, and amazing all at once!<\/span><\/p><p class=\" translation-block\">It all started on the 1st of May with our second Youth Exchange: Entrepreneurship Goes Green (EGG). Ona and I were really excited about it for many reasons. First, it would take us out of our routine. Second, it would give us the opportunity to see our friends from the training course again. And last but not least, we would meet new people, take part in new activities, and, well, who knows what can happen during a youth exchange? Ahah<\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">And all of that happened! It was a wonderful experience. On both a personal and social level, I was very happy to be there and spend time with so many great people. Being able to have fun, connect, and share experiences with them was amazing. Professionally, I also felt much more confident. I knew what I had to do, and I was already familiar with Juan and Lucija's way of working. This time, there were no unpleasant surprises\u2014just good organization and great results!<\/span><\/p><p><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/argonauta.hr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/Feb-3-4.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"1280\" height=\"720\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-58537 size-full\" srcset=\"https:\/\/argonauta.hr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/Feb-3-4.png 1280w, https:\/\/argonauta.hr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/Feb-3-4-300x169.png 300w, https:\/\/argonauta.hr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/Feb-3-4-1024x576.png 1024w, https:\/\/argonauta.hr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/Feb-3-4-768x432.png 768w, https:\/\/argonauta.hr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/Feb-3-4-18x10.png 18w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1280px) 100vw, 1280px\" \/><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The week after, Ona's family came to visit her, and it was finally time for me to meet the family in law for the first time, ahah<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">They were incredibly kind to me and took me everywhere with them. Thanks to them, I was able to visit Zadar and its beautiful Sea Organ, as well as what I consider one of the most beautiful places I have ever seen: Plitvice Lakes National Park.<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">On a sunny day, together with Ona and her family, we explored Croatia's stunning lakes and waterfalls. It was absolutely breathtaking\u2014like stepping into a fairy tale! I am very grateful that they took me there, and more generally, I really loved spending time with all of them. Getting to know her family also helped me get to know Ona even better &lt;3<\/span><\/p><p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/argonauta.hr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/Feb-3-5.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"1280\" height=\"720\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-58536 size-full\" srcset=\"https:\/\/argonauta.hr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/Feb-3-5.png 1280w, https:\/\/argonauta.hr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/Feb-3-5-300x169.png 300w, https:\/\/argonauta.hr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/Feb-3-5-1024x576.png 1024w, https:\/\/argonauta.hr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/Feb-3-5-768x432.png 768w, https:\/\/argonauta.hr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/Feb-3-5-18x10.png 18w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1280px) 100vw, 1280px\" \/><\/p><p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/argonauta.hr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/Feb-3-6.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"1280\" height=\"720\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-58535 size-full\" srcset=\"https:\/\/argonauta.hr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/Feb-3-6.png 1280w, https:\/\/argonauta.hr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/Feb-3-6-300x169.png 300w, https:\/\/argonauta.hr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/Feb-3-6-1024x576.png 1024w, https:\/\/argonauta.hr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/Feb-3-6-768x432.png 768w, https:\/\/argonauta.hr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/Feb-3-6-18x10.png 18w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1280px) 100vw, 1280px\" \/><\/p><p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/argonauta.hr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/Feb-3-7.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"1280\" height=\"720\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-58534 size-full\" srcset=\"https:\/\/argonauta.hr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/Feb-3-7.png 1280w, https:\/\/argonauta.hr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/Feb-3-7-300x169.png 300w, https:\/\/argonauta.hr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/Feb-3-7-1024x576.png 1024w, https:\/\/argonauta.hr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/Feb-3-7-768x432.png 768w, https:\/\/argonauta.hr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/Feb-3-7-18x10.png 18w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1280px) 100vw, 1280px\" \/><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Then, just two days after they left, we found ourselves packing our bags once again for a new journey and a new adventure: T\u00fcrkiye! :))))<\/span><\/p><p class=\" translation-block\">This trip was for a project called Life After Erasmus, which Ona is coordinating. Our task was to interview former participants from Argonauta's accreditation programme, including participants from Youth Exchanges and Training Courses.<\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">We had already conducted some interviews during the previous months, but many of the people on our list happened to be from T\u00fcrkiye... so of course, we had to go there. Such a shame, right? ;)<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">To be completely honest, we mainly used this opportunity to visit friends we had met through Youth Exchanges and Training Courses over the past months. And let me tell you: it was the best trip of my life!<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">We were hosted by friends of our friends, and together they showed us their city, university, and association. They introduced us to their customs, traditions, games, and food. I think the fact that we experienced all of this with them made everything even more special\u2014they were truly the highlight of the trip.<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Of course, we also worked. We filmed the interviews, but even that turned out to be a really enjoyable experience.<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Besides the interviews, we also held a workshop about our experience as ESC volunteers with Argonauta for people interested in volunteering themselves. It was a very enriching experience because we met many interesting and inspiring people.<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Ona and I genuinely believe Argonauta should pay us extra for that workshop\u2014we are literally Argonauta's biggest ambassadors! Ahahah<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">To finish the trip on the best possible note, we spent one day visiting Istanbul, and it was every bit as beautiful as you can imagine.<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Okay, let's be honest, the journey back wasn't quite as amazing as the rest of the trip... Our flight got cancelled, and instead of returning home in one day, it took us two days and three FlixBuses. Lol<\/span><\/p><p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/argonauta.hr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/Feb-3-8.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"1280\" height=\"720\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-58533 size-full\" srcset=\"https:\/\/argonauta.hr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/Feb-3-8.png 1280w, https:\/\/argonauta.hr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/Feb-3-8-300x169.png 300w, https:\/\/argonauta.hr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/Feb-3-8-1024x576.png 1024w, https:\/\/argonauta.hr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/Feb-3-8-768x432.png 768w, https:\/\/argonauta.hr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/Feb-3-8-18x10.png 18w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1280px) 100vw, 1280px\" \/><\/p><p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/argonauta.hr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/Feb-3-9.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"1280\" height=\"720\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-58532 size-full\" srcset=\"https:\/\/argonauta.hr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/Feb-3-9.png 1280w, https:\/\/argonauta.hr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/Feb-3-9-300x169.png 300w, https:\/\/argonauta.hr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/Feb-3-9-1024x576.png 1024w, https:\/\/argonauta.hr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/Feb-3-9-768x432.png 768w, https:\/\/argonauta.hr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/Feb-3-9-18x10.png 18w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1280px) 100vw, 1280px\" \/><\/p><p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/argonauta.hr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/Feb-3-10.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"1280\" height=\"720\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-58531 size-full\" srcset=\"https:\/\/argonauta.hr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/Feb-3-10.png 1280w, https:\/\/argonauta.hr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/Feb-3-10-300x169.png 300w, https:\/\/argonauta.hr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/Feb-3-10-1024x576.png 1024w, https:\/\/argonauta.hr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/Feb-3-10-768x432.png 768w, https:\/\/argonauta.hr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/Feb-3-10-18x10.png 18w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1280px) 100vw, 1280px\" \/><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">But anyway, we made it back home. After a day dedicated to laundry and recovery, we returned to the office and our usual routine. Yet I didn't find it boring for a single moment because summer had already arrived, and the atmosphere was completely different.<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">On top of that, I was finally able to fully focus on my personal project. I sent out the application form and received authorization from the municipality for the exhibition. The feeling of satisfaction that comes from seeing your project slowly come to life is simply incredible.<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">To conclude this amazing month, on the 30th we went to the Kornati Islands for a project, and we had the opportunity to swim in this idyllic place and enjoy a free boat ride.
