An international youth camp in the Hungarian city of Balatonfüred united teenagers from nine countries, among which Bulgaria was represented by students from a Burgas secondary school. The initiative, organized by the twin city of Burgas, Miskolc, turned Lake Balaton into an epicenter of cultural exchange and international understanding.

The large-scale forum included a diverse program that covered sports activities, creative workshops, and educational visits. Participants had the opportunity to explore the picturesque city of Keszthely and immerse themselves in the atmosphere of the aristocratic Festetics Palace, as well as discover the sights of the Hungarian capital Budapest.

The Bulgarian group stood out with an impressive presentation during the national evening, during which they presented the authentic cultural heritage of our country. Through masterful folk dances, a multimedia presentation, and a traditional culinary exhibition, the young people from Burgas managed to captivate the audience.

Culinary specialties such as lutenitsa, white cheese, and lukanka caused a real sensation among the international audience, receiving enthusiastic applause and high praise. This cultural exchange went beyond ordinary communication, turning into a true diplomatic mission at the youth level.

The pedagogical team, including Nikolay Todorov - an English language teacher, and Irina Vaptsarova - a German language specialist, provided perfect organization and methodological support to the participants. Their focused work contributed to the successful international performance of the students.

Participation in this prestigious forum became convincing evidence of the high potential of Burgas students as worthy representatives of Bulgarian culture and young ambassadors of international understanding.
