Location: Płaczewo (Szymanka), Poland

Missing those carefree summer days — spontaneous road trips, new friendships, evenings by the lake and hobbies you once loved?

“Back to Basics: Slow Tech & Rediscovering Hobbies” is a Youth Exchange for young people aged 18–25 who want to take a break from constant scrolling, online pressure and the feeling that every moment has to be productive.

Surrounded by nature, we will slow down, reconnect with ourselves and rediscover hobbies as a source of joy, creativity and well-being. Through hands-on workshops, shared experiences and peer learning, we will explore our digital habits, try new activities and exchange skills and passions. You will also have the opportunity to shape parts of the programme and bring your own ideas to life.

The exchange will take place at a nature-based venue in Szymanka (Płaczewo), with shared accommodation close to lakes and the seaside. Travel will be organised and reimbursed according to the Erasmus+ rules described in the infopack.

Come for the adventure, stay for the people — and perhaps return home with a hobby you had forgotten you loved.

Age of participants: 18-25

Accommodation and meals are provided, and travel costs are reimbursed according to Erasmus+ rules as described in the infopack
