Extreme Lagom – the Swedish way of balance

Extreme Lagom - the Swedish way of balance

Lagom is a Swedish term for not too much, not too little. Just right. And that's exactly what we had the opportunity to learn. The activities of this successful project were incredibly diverse, enriching, and allowed us to develop and fully utilize our potential. A very unusual and rather unprecedented element was the opportunity to lead activities, which taught us leadership skills. The project took place in an incredibly beautiful, peaceful environment, approximately 20 minutes from the capital of Sweden, and was attended by 25 young people from Slovakia, Portugal, Italy, Romania, and Sweden.

From the very beginning, the atmosphere among the participants was very pleasant and relaxed, which allowed us to communicate openly from day one. The project was perfectly managed both organizationally and technically. The environment in which it took place was simply breathtaking, and we completely forgot about everyday reality. At the same time, it taught us cooperation and independence, as we took care of everything either ourselves or together (hygiene, food, tidiness, activity management, etc.).

As a cherry on top, there was a very pleasant one-day trip to Stockholm at the end, which again broadened our perspective and complemented what we had learned on the project. This opportunity offered us a lot, in addition to countless memories, also many friends, a more enjoyable summer, and last but not least, experience. Thank you!
