CDL Day – Grand Prix XIX
A very original and unusual weekend in New Portena ๐๐ผ๐ฅ
We are truly proud of Sayuri and Mei mei who took care of their mental and physical health by engaging in outdoor workouts as well as of Gergana and Ana Karina who offered their very precious help during the International Cooking Evening, which took place last Friday.
The aim of this activity was to involve students in preparing traditional meals of countries different from their own, that could match well: what winning combination better than a dessert with beneficial fruit and chocolate chip complemented by a hot golden milk which reigns supreme for a healthy, healing and anti-inflammatory Indian drink (and bonus… it is super delicious)?

Discovering Rovaniemi: A Winter Wonderland Adventure! โ๏ธ๐๐ซ๐ฎ
Sayuri, Rin, Ashley, Yufei, Gergana, Paulina, Melissa, Vladislava, Lily, and Chihana embarked on an unforgettable journey to Rovaniemi, Finland, during the winter break. The Arctic landscape welcomed them with a fresh blanket of snow, setting the stage for an enchanting experience.
From visiting Santa Claus’s village to exploring the pristine wilderness through ice skating and sleigh rides, each day was filled with magical moments. Despite cloudy skies, the anticipation of witnessing the Northern Lights kept spirits high. Some were lucky enough to witness them on the second night!
Although the auroras remained elusive, the group’s spirits weren’t dampened as they embraced every adventure, from dog sledding to visiting a reindeer farm. Each experience added to the magic of their winter wonderland excursion. โ๏ธ๐ฒ๐ฆ #NewPortenaJourney
