Today, we had one of the major activities of every Village: the Open Day! This is the time during the month when we open the campsite, in order for members of the local CISV chapter to see how the Village is going and meet all the participants. For the delegations, it was an opportunity for them to introduce themselves and share a little cultural presentation about their respective countries.
Each delegation set up and decorated booths dedicated to showing off the best of their respective countries and cultures. Unofficially, though, it was a chance for everyone to get a taste of sweets and other treats, as well as score some cool freebies and souvenirs, from around the world. ;-)

We also invited over all the host families for the kids' second homestay who were also coming to pick up the kids for the weekend, so we were able to smoothly and personally hand over the kids to their families right after the program. All-in-all, it was a truly open day, with guests of all ages coming together and, excuse me, BUILD GLOBAL FRIENDSHIP! :-p
Congrats!!! Every country has its charm!!!
