Here are a few pictures from our student winter conferece. The top one is a picture of some of the brand new Slovak euro coins. The currency here changed on Jan. 1st from Slovak Crowns to the Euro. So, when we got off our bus at a gas station on the way home from our conference, we were paying in crowns, but getting change back in euros! It was wierd but exciting.
Next is a picture of Stephanie, Justin, and I playing games with some students from Bratislava and Presov. It was a trivia game like Trivial Pursuit, but it was all in Slovak! They helped us translate if we needed it!
Third is a picture of people skating on the frozen lake by our hostel.
Last is a picture of a group of students and staff that went on a hike during our free day at the conference. Mikey went with them, but I was with a group of girls having hot chocolate at a nearby hotel!
