THE ENTREPRENEURIAL EUROPE

Miroslav Nikolic: Gymnasium Leskovac:

"I am writing from Leskovac while still arranging in my head strong impressions I brought from Segedin. I must say that this visit represented for me realy an exciting experience, and that in addition to the nice impressions of the hosting country, the Fair organization and of other events there, I have come back home also richer with many new friendships, which makes me rteally happy. I have already sent my mails to my new friends in Norway , England , Albania and Hungary .

Friendly greetings from Leskovac.

Basic Boris, Ivanjica:

Greetings! We have spent in Segedin 7 unforgetable days, the time during which we have acquired unforgetable experiences. We have become essentially acquiainted with the basics of cultural patterns of four other European countries, and most important of all, acquired some new frieendships the same age pals both with our compatriots and with those from other four nations taking part in "The Bridge Fair" events. Well, l also do think that we have succeeded to improve somewhat the bad image of our coutry and of our people mostly prevailing abroad - since their knowledge of our people was hardly going beyond the common belief that we were the people who mostly enjoyed waging the wars. Already during the first day it seems that we have succueeded convincing them that out of 12 trades in which we have been supposed in a way to compete with the other nations' teams at the Segedin Fair - the safest one would be: to travel together with a Serbian soldier. Well, eventually, the others admitted that it would be the safest way to travel anywhere.

The other day, at the Serbian dinner party, we have got the chance to acquaint the others somewhat more with our history, sports, music, habits ,etc. - as well as to serve some Serbian sweets, like: the wild strawberry jam, dadelion honey, home-made tomato juice, corn bread etc. Finally, I would like to praise the contributions of all Serbian participants to this event, and especially the one rendered by our colleague Ivan Vukic - who with his ideas and interpretation mostly contributed to the improved image of our country. Finally, the last but not the least: Our team has won the cup - for offering the best logo (with the coat of arms and the flag). But yet, the greatest rewards for everybody from Serbian team were - acquiring new experiences and friendships.
