Mobility to the Vistula – DAY 3

The third day of mobility was devoted to the topic of the virtual world. Young people considered how they find themselves in it and what world they are closer to – whether the real world or maybe the virtual one.

The workshop part was interestingly organized and enjoyed great involvement among the participants. At the beginning, everyone was supposed to describe their friend they know in real life, and then a friend from the virtual world. Surprisingly, despite the times we live in, where the Internet is literally everywhere and we can easily make contacts in it, almost half of people did not have their equivalent of a friend on the Internet.

After this task, the young people were provided with a large dose of movement. Each of the project participants had to do a lot of gymnastics to go through the previously prepared obstacle course.

Hot and even more focused students went to the art part, where they had to draw how they see our world in a hundred years. The effects of the work were very interesting and radically different. As we well know, there is a war going on beyond our eastern border. However, our friends from Ukraine see the future very positively. Among other things, they drew the contours of their country from before the war. Discussing their work, they said they believed they would be able to travel freely and people would be healthy. The Polish group, on the other hand, sees the world less colorfully than its eastern neighbours. For they have drawn a world without trees with poisoned rivers, where people will be obese. This task gave everyone a lot to reflect on how we perceive the world.

In the afternoon, the participants went on a mountain trail to climb Kobyla Góra. When the weather was nice, everyone could breathe in the fresh air. After reaching the vantage point, everyone could admire the fantastic panorama of the Vistula River, the Silesian Beskids and Skolnity, which the group had visited the previous day. Krzakoska Skała from which this beautiful view spreads is the most famous climbing rock of the Silesian Beskids.
