POLISH –AMERICAN EXCHANGE PROJECT

             Cultures Across Borders: Seeing Oneself Through Others
  1. Maya Angelou once Said: „I’ve learned that people will forget what you Said, people will forg et what you did, but pe ople will never forget how you made them feel.” What are my expectations concerning the participation In the Exchange program so that it could be remembered for a long time?

When I was standing before a huge decision of my life which was to choose the ideal high school for my interests and abilities, schools’ Exchange programmes were grabbing most of my attention. I was delighted to hear that tere is a polish-american project organised by VLO. It’s because travelling is my greatest passion and so is learning about the world’s cultures and traditions. There is some secretive kind of spirit hidden In the pleasure of exploring the nations which always seem so distant from our perspective here at home.
If I were to discuss the mentioned quote of Maya Angelou, I’d strongly agree. It’s enough to think about our own past. For when I take a look at my childhood, I can only notice some chaotic scenes, faces or words but I always can recall each and every emotion accompanying certain occurance. Why? Because each moment that has ever moved us so deeply that we remember it is unique and unrepeatable It’s those rare memories of feelings that I count on to experience during the time spent with american students.
First of all, there is the power of immortal friendships. Having a lot of fun together, creating memorable situations and confronting our way of thinking with somebody else’s is normal for all sorts of friendships but there is something that characterizes the international relations. Breaking the ice with teenagers totally different, with diverse mentalities might seem hard but in fact it goes in the opposite direction. The fact that we differ effects the process of making new friends in a similar way to the catalyst effecting chemical reactions. There is so much we have to share with each other! So many topics to talk about, so much to learn…
Although the value of friendships is so big that I could end the essay after pointing it out, there is still so much more to add. I mentioned that I’m In love with travelling but I’m not like a regular tourist. The value of travels is not only connected to sightseeing. For me the most important part are the people, their characters, personalities, the morality of the region. This is what I always look for in each city or country. When I leave, I want my way of thinking and imagining the world slightly change, increased by a brand new breath of the local philosophy. Taking part In an exchange would allow me to see the entire posture of the american life from the very inside, from the horse’s mouth. I’ve never been to USA in my life before so such an opportunity would finally let me judge what of the stereotypes of the great american style of life are true and which need a little correction. Poeple sometimes tend to talk a lot about things they know nothing about. I prefer and I love to know a lot but talk only what I’m sure is right.
The main question included In the topic was to say what I expect from the exchange program and what would make me remember it for a long time. There are the things I mentioned; priceless friendships, the possibility to feel the spirit of the american hearts and uncovering some popular myths. But more to that, there are countless bigger or smaller mysteries that I’m bound to come cross during the unforgettable time of the project.
