Last week we had the opportunity to enjoy the extraordinary hospitality of our hosts, the Turkish partner in the Common Heritage from Tradition to Future project. We visited Mersin. The first day was spent in an excellent folklore performance by the host students, presentations on the topic of traditional children's games and the games themselves. In addition, we tasted traditional Turkish dishes and visited the House of Fairy Tales where, in addition to coloring sea stones, there was also a presentation on the Turkish ritual of preparing and drinking coffee. The next day we visited Mugdat's mosque, where the presentation was completed by a folklore performance on the theme of whirling dervishes, and in the afternoon we visited Kizkalesi, a cave called Paradise and Hell because of its exceptional structure. Wednesday was reserved for Cappadocia, where we visited underground dwellings and witnessed the wonderful geological wonder of this entire area. We also visited Göreme. In the evening, there was also a cultural event for mobility participants. The rest of the week was spent getting to know the traditions of Turkey related to weddings, and thanks to the kindness of the host, we even attended the actual Henna Night, a traditional Turkish wedding ceremony.
On this occasion, we once again thank the host for his hospitality, which in many ways surpassed the proverbial Turkish hospitality.
