Bergolo is once again a calm place
Hi everybody, how are you ! Here, the weather is amazing ! But, after the youth exchange in Bergolo, the village became peaceful and quiet. Maybe too much.....

👋 Hello, fancy pants! Batuhan here 🦇 Just got back from my latest adventure across Europe 🌍, where I learned a lot, enjoyed every moment, and experienced a whirlwind of emotions.
