The host school organized a series of guided tours for us. The tours were well explained and managed using small brochures. Being a hotel school and for tourism, the students prepared a typical meal for all participants in mobility and also presented a fashion show with "green" dresses. The fifth meeting should have been held in ITALY from 23-2-20 to 29-2-20 but it did not take place because it was suspended due to force majeure. The Portuguese, Turkish and Polish guests, no matter how arrived in Cosenza, were forced to return immediately to their places of origin. Norwegian and Greek partners were contacted while traveling and invited to go back. So our school complied with the national provisions contained in the DPCM February 23, 2020, n. 6 and related measures of the Italian Government adopted for the containment of the contagion from Covid-19. The Monaco provided all the necessary support and invited students/teachers to take into account the indications provided by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs.

The sixth meeting took place in GREECE, from 31-5-21 to 4-6-21, in virtual mode via Webex platform. For this meeting students prepared:

• a transport questionnaire; • a video about the pandemic; • a glossary; • a video titled "Bike ride: for one less car"; • a dynamic poster "For one car less"; • a power point titled "Green Jobs".

In addition, the activities that should have been carried out in Italy have been recovered, that is: • an interview with Prof. Chidichimo on “green buildings”; • a power point on "green building".

The Greek school provided for the construction of an e-book on the theme "green jobs" gathering the work of each partner. Then the best poster was voted. All participants voted and the Greek team got the most votes. At the end of the meeting, each participating country proposed some videos with dances and sounds of their own tradition.
