Back to the roots – Crash course on the Wadden Sea area for the Dutchies!

As I know many of you guys think an evening at the Adriatic coast needs to end with some quiet and peaceful activities, like a glass of good wine in a fancy bar, to observe the sun going down above the sea and coloring it into a beautiful, warm orange, or to listen to some good music and enjoying the still warm temperatures. Well, the Dutchies took a more active approach on yesterday’s evening! Instead of ending the day calm, we had some action. On the volleyball field we played some interesting matches. As it turned out, sports during the evening are big time funny and a diversified workout. Konstantin, widely known as a good lecturer, language fan and tea connoisseur, even found his secret profession: being a volleyball referee!

What to do after some hours of sport? Having a nice Pizza? Hell yeah! Oh damn the restaurant with the best Pizza is 4 kilometers away?! Okay, no problems for the Dutchies and their international colleagues – some more sport then before dinner! So we took the long way accepted the challenge. As expected, it was worth it. The Pizza was awesome, the hunger was stayed and after adding some nice ice-cream on top of it the Dutchies were satisfied!

Today our schedule said: ‘Lectures, Dutchies! Learn something!’ So that’s what we did…what we actually learned might surprise you. We learned something about our well-known and beloved Wadden Sea! But what can I say…this topic never gets old! Still interesting, still learned a lot!

Also the morning lecture gave a nice introduction to wellness tourism, even though we didn´t get the change to discover such a product ourselves (yet). Our recommendation in this case, the lecturers should proof their massage skills on the audience ;-). So far, another great day in Portorož! Stay tuned for tomorrow’s blog and don’t miss the new episode of ‘Gerrit Explains’. We will now have our ‘Beach Picnic Part II’! On that note: Have a nice evening and ‘tot morgen’!
