Everyone returned home, feeling eventually relaxed after two crazy-rushy-hasty-HAPPY weeks, but at the same time, reluctant even to upload photos, not talking about writing stories of the week. But how different it was just a week ago! Each morning started with some person (sometimes you did not even know who he or she was) bursting into your room saying some… Read more →
On the 4th of July our Travel Summer University (TSU) started with 24 participants from 12 different nations, who were eager to find out whether common German stereotypes held true or not. The best way of getting to know a country profound is by crossing it from one side to another, so we started our trip at Lake Constance, which… Read more →
There you are, in the air somewhere between your home country and the Summer University. Destination: two unforgettable weeks. Valladolid, June 20th 2014. As we arrived, tired from the more or less long travel, we just had the time to put down our luggage and choose a spot to place our air-mattress and we were immediately thrown into some ice-breaking… Read more →
Walter White was looking at me, seated down in his cheap, rusty chair. His face was a mixture of rage-looking eyes, disappointing gesture and an unusual peace. I felt weird, lost in my mind, again. When suddenly, a voice broke into my thoughts. – Are you ready? – my dad asked. Yes, I was. My first Summer University (SU) would… Read more →
After hearing lots of interesting, fun stories from fellow AEGEEans about Summer Universities, I decided to try it out myself this year. Why not? Everybody likes a cheap vacation and discovering different cultures while getting to meet awesome people from all around Europe! I applied for different SUs and before I knew it I had packed my bags and was… Read more →
Monday, 3:00 AM, a beach in Messina next to the famous U Piluni (it looks like a pink Eiffel Tower and it’s almost as famous as the French one). We’re sitting on the beach by a bonfire, drinking “Messina” beer, singing Italian songs, chilling. It’s a night of full moon and falling stars… suddenly, Lena, our German colleague, notes that… Read more →
Welcome to the fantastic Travel Summer University “Touch the Sky Under the Mediterranean Fire”, organized by two amazing locals: AEGEE-Tarragona and AEGEE-Valencia! You couldn’t even expact the experiences we finally had, coming to the event! Let us show you what happened during two weeks at the Eastern coast of the Iberian Peninsula.

This August, the collaboration between three organising antennae, 26 volunteers and helpers from AEGEE-Pécs, AEGEE-Piliscsaba and AEGEE-Debrecen made it possible for 21 participants, representing 13 nations (including Hungary as a hosting nation) and coming from 23 universities, to visit eight Hungarian cities during the fifteen days of a one-of-a-kind all-Hungarian AEGEE travelling summer university entitled “SPAice Up Your Life With… Read more →
My story will begin slightly differently than other Summer University stories. I have been an AEGEE member for over 2.5 years and despite being very active in the association and participating and organizing different events, I had never attended any Summer University. Up until now. I have just returned from the most amazing event I have ever been to, both… Read more →
“Write a story for us”, they said, and I was more than happy to embrace that assignment… a month ago. Last night, terrified, I look at the blank paper feeling the weight of the task that had been given to me. Could I speak with enough ardor about more than 40 Odysseus lived by each participant and organizer of the… Read more →
