Just a few photos of the Y2K 2017 in Courpière!





Nathaël writes: In the picture (below), I am on a bench with the Hungarian girls. To me, meeting the Europeans was simply amazing. Being able to speak our mind about our culture and our feelings with young people who may not think like us is awesome. Talking freely with them despite our differences was really enriching.




Mélanie writes: this picture (below) was taken when Raphaëlle and I interviewed the English delegation. It was kind of difficut because the room was crowded and so there was a lot of noise. The groups had all brought typical food from their countries. I took part in other activities such as the board game evening on Thursday night. One special moment which I will remember for a long time is when I played basketball and football during break time with a lot of people from the different countries. I got to meet a lot of incredible new people and, let me tell you, they are really good players!




Manon writes: The visit of the European pupils was simply unforgettable! The people were very friendly and I didn't have any problems with understanding what they were saying; they spoke very clearly. Here is (below) a picture of me and Louis, my group leader. Cynthia took this picture right after we interviewed the German team.























Louanne writes: In this picture (below), Mr Germain and Miss Saby are about to give the European Youth Conference Flag to the delegates of next year’s host country: Hungary. This year marked the 10th anniversary of the Y2K Conference, and so France decided to do something special. On the flag, you can see "F17" written in the first star. That means "France 2017". They explained that they wanted it to be like the Olympic Torch, which I think is very cool!






Marie-Sarah writes: During the Conference, I felt really happy to be around so many nationalities and cultures. It was such a rewarding experience to be able to have discussions with these European teenagers and to discover the differences between their cultures and our own. So yes, I felt happy and lucky.
