Italy
participants
The aim was to give our Erasmus students an occasion to visit the city, get to know each other, practice sport and also take them out of the routine of the city centre mood.
As always we think about our health before our pleasure but we decided to combine both. Be careful, respect the restrictions but at the same time be together and enjoy a sunny day and practice sport. We found the solution in organizing a bike tour which allowed us to show the city to our new incoming erasmus but also the students that were here since the previous semestre. We created a form to fill in order to understand how many partecipants are intrested into this idea, how many of them like cycling and how often they do it and also how many of them still don't have a bike in order to provide and rent one for them. Basing on our numbre we decided to split in groups in order to respect the social distance and do not break any rule. We fixed the meeting point in a big square in order to have enough space and be well organised. Each group had a leader ( an ESN member ) which task was to show the way and also keep the group compacted and be at the same pace. Once arrived to our destination, Addaura ( a rock beach in Palermo) we had a 3 hours break to have rest, sunbath and also some brave ones plunged in the sea. On our way back we stopped at an ice cream shop (it's a must to stop there because you can try one of the best ice cream in city there). Finally I can say that everybody was satistied, had fun and the most important back home safe. Now we have a group of bikers and we hope to organise a similar event soon.
