Because we’re always in search of new opportunities to let people know what we’redoing, and get invaluable feedback, we were at Sibiu for the Scientific Conference. We received a lot of valuable information, independent of our project, but which is most certainly going to help us from now on, we got the feedback we came for, we exchanged contacts and definitely met a great deal of interesting people.
We arrived at Sibiu late on Friday, we checked in at our friend Ciprian (who’s anarchitect student and a great biker) and we went to explore Sibiu, the European Capitalof Culture 2007. A couple of days before our arrival, Sibiu International TheatreFestival (link) started. Quite frankly, it didn’t have much to do with our project butwe can always find inspiration in places where most people least expect it. Be on thelookout for PRISPA performances! 😉
On Saturday we presented our project at the Conference and saw a lot of otherinteresting projects presented; it took almost all day. The conference took place at theAstra Village Museum from Sibiu (link), one of the biggest in Europe, so, as you canimagine we had inspirational visits to make during the breaks.
Bear with us, because on Sunday we came back to the museum trying to see as muchas we could. (Between us, you’d need a little over a week to see everything there). Oh,we almost forgot. Take a minute to check us out on Facebook and Youtube, to seehow great our decathlets added biking to the contest. (As though 10 contests were notenough. 😀 )
Overall, it was a great experience and we did everything we could hope for. We ‘stole’important ideas for our project, we got feedback and we made friends, we visited Sibiuand participated at Sibiu International Theatre Festival.
As you can see, PRISPA is not just a career oportunity, it is a beautiful experience. You meet incredible people, you make connections, you learn how to work in teams, you become better.
