A student from Gracanica Miroslav Cirkovic said that this was the first time he has participated in the camp, but that he had no problem getting along with the team of young archeologists from all over the region. “I liked the company, it was good with Albanians and Germans. I learned a lot and I am still learning from them, I have good friends, and I am having a good time,” he said. A veteran of the camp and economy student from Pristina, Aurora Kastrati, said that all those participating in the camp have the same goal—to progress professionally and to start to overcome differences between those attending the camp. “We have very good relations. We are here to cooperation and we never had any problems,” she said. The work of the multi-ethnic camp began on July 20 and will last until August 7.
