At the beginning of September, young people from Szczecin in Poland visited the IB in Frankfurt/Oder, Germany. The meeting was part of the Erasmus+ project “IB Gastronomy Highlights” and served to get to know each other and exchange ideas with young Germans.
During these days, the young people were given insights into various trades - such as metal construction, carpentry and service - and took a tour of Frankfurt/Oder.
A visit to Berlin was also on the agenda, albeit for a special occasion: the Polish and German young people were deployed as waiters and waitresses at the Berlin „Hoffest“ Courtyard Festival in the courtyards of the the Berlin town hall „Rotes Rathaus“, and served around 4,000 guests from all areas of social life.
The group mastered this challenge - which was not only a linguistic one - with joy and humor.
The time spent together and these shared experiences strengthened German-Polish relations.
We would like to thank the young people from our Polish partner OHP in Szczecin and believe and hope that this is the beginning of a wonderful friendship.
