Sergi and Tony traveled to Turkey for a Comenius meeting. They flew from Paris to Istanbul and then to Antalya, where their partners were waiting for them. During the week-long trip, they visited several historical and natural sites around Antalya, including ancient ruins, Turkish baths, beaches, and waterfalls. They also gave an oral presentation at their partner school and had a farewell party. The trip allowed them to learn about Turkish culture while staying with local families and making new friends.
