What to bring?

  • Valid passport - please check if you need visa or invitation letter (please let us
    know in advance). Slovakia is a Member of Schengen Space of EU which is
    important information in case you need a visa. Visa is your own responsibility, but
    of course we will help you with invitation letter or any required paperwork
    embassy will ask for.
     

  • Travel & health insurance – if your country is a member of EU you should bring
    an EU health insurance card (ask your state health insurance company).
    According to the common rule within EU, if you have such a card, you are
    entitled to health care in case of emergency under same rules as Slovak citizens
    are in Slovakia. Be aware that not many situations can be considered as
    emergency so for your own sake bring also commercial health insurance.
     

  • Credit/debit card, traveller cheques or/and cash – cards are accepted in most
    of shops but charges can occur based on rules of your bank. In pubs and bars is
    more common to pay by cash.
     

  • ISIC or Euro 26 or valid student ID
     

  • Pocket money - if you want to buy a beer in the pub or bring a present from
    Slovakia for your family
     

  • Soap, towel, toothpaste & brush – we like clean and beautiful participants also
    in the end of course
     

  • Any music instrument (don’t bring piano)
     

  • Sportswear – hiking shoes, umbrella or raincoat, jogging clothes, warm clothes
     

  • Typical food and drinks from your country for “International Evening” -
    There is usually limited or no possibility of cooking before international evening.
     

  • YOU with a big smile on your face
     

  • A lot of BEST spirit
     

  • Funny, small presents for organisers
