Here's the Welcome Weeks calendar with all the events! You will be informed and reminded of each event the day before it happens so you can prepare for it. 🥰

Since we are sure some of these events sound confusing and you want to know what you're paying for (understandably so!), we will go into a bit more detail about them day by day:

Day one: The Welcome Reception is a wonderful event where you meet all the Erasmus people at once and you learn more about the whole Erasmus experience. After you've seen everyone at the same place it's time to get to know them better during the Speed-friending event! This is a fun event filled with activities and its goal is to help you make some meaningful connections, as well as meet interesting new people, so use it wisely! 👫🏻

Day two: This day is all about culture and good food! As every one of you (hopefully) knows, you've come to a whole new country, which means the cuisine and the culture is completely new to you which also means it's time to explore it! This night is filled with hedonism with cheerful music, dancing and amazing delicacies so prepare all your senses! 🇸🇮

Day three: This day is pretty self-explanatory - first we go from bar to bar and drink shots and afterwards we party until the sun comes out! I expect to see all you party animals there and remember, you're gonna show us how you guys party in your country, so make sure to do your country justice and have the best time ever!

Day four: I hope that all of you know that the best way to cure a hangover is to drink wine, no? Is it not how it works? Oh well, I guess you'll have to come to the Wine tasting event just to be sure...👀
The international dinner is where we eat foods from all of your countries, so once again prepare your senses!

Day five: We've decided to be generous and give you guys a bit of a break and make these events a bit more chill, but just as much fun! 🎤

Day six: This is a wonderful opportunity to see Maribor in a whole new way! The views you will experience are amazing, make sure not to skip this one! 🌌

Day seven: Today is all about sports and Timber Rafting! All you sports fans make sure to attend this one! As for the Timber Rafting - as the name suggests it's on a raft! There's music, chilling, drinking wine all while sailing along the river and enjoying the views! 🏀⛵

Day eight: Match up is another event where you can get to know different people and socialize and who knows if you like them enough you can even come to our Cinema night together! 🍿

Day nine: This is when the second group will be attending the Wine tasting event!

Day ten: Second group's PubCrawl but the party, just like the first one, is for everyone to attend!

Day eleven: We are pretty sure you all know what this is so we will spare you the unnecessary details!
