\u201cWe want to make a Summer University which will stand out, inspire people and give them an opportunity to experience all things \"\"<\/a>creative, which they otherwise never might,\u201d<\/em>\u00a0was the main motivation behind the TSU concept, set up by the main organiser, Brin Malina. It was most definitely achieved with a bunch of\u00a0interactive<\/strong>\u00a0workshops<\/strong>\u00a0from various creative fields<\/strong>. Wonderful participants were given the opportunity to get to know the fields of\u00a0music, photography, street art, dance<\/strong>\u00a0and their peculiarities. The most fun and interactive were surely the photo-shooting contests in Maribor and Ljubljana and the lip dub. For the\u00a0photo-shooting contest<\/strong>\u00a0the participants were divided into groups of five and given some serious and some a bit odd and crazy assignments, which they had to do and document. As for the\u00a0lip dub<\/strong>, it was a unique experience and something new for both participants and organisers, since they made their very own music video for the well-known “Walking on Sunshine” song . You can\u00a0watch it<\/strong>\u00a0<\/strong>here<\/strong><\/a>.<\/p>\n

We had fun \u2026<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n

Additionally, the participants were inspired and entertained with several other activities. As at every summer university,\u00a0city tours<\/strong>\u00a0\"\"<\/a>were a must and an important part in learning about the Slovenian culture and a bit of history, as was also the\u00a0treasure hunt<\/strong>\u00a0in Ljubljana and\u00a0traditional wood-rafting experience<\/strong>\u00a0and\u00a0wine tasting<\/strong>\u00a0in Maribor. A big part of the current modern culture in Maribor are also the\u00a0Lent festival<\/strong>\u00a0and\u00a0European capital of culture Maribor 2012<\/strong>, which were happening during Blau University and added a special vibe to the TSU. The participants also got to know the historical city of\u00a0Celje<\/strong>\u00a0<\/strong>and\u00a0<\/strong>La\u0161ko<\/strong>, which is known for its brewery. And of course, there were also the\u00a0thematic parties<\/strong>\u00a0(from Charleston to superhero) in various clubs, where everyone danced and bonded almost until dawn, and well-known\u00a0European night<\/strong>\u00a0with traditional food and drinks.<\/p>\n

We had seasons in the sun!<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n

As already stated, it was a unique experience, a real razzle dazzle, which would not happen without\u00a0wonderful and lovely \"\"<\/a>participants from Spain to Russia<\/strong>, who surely shared and felt the\u00a0AEGEE spirit<\/strong>. That is why the organisers would like to thank each and every one of them and of course AEGEE for making it possible. See you somewhere and Europe and keep spreading the AEGEEan vibe and stay creative.<\/p>\n
