Welcome

This blog was created as part of the Erasmus Mundus Crossways in Cultural Narratives Masters programme, which is the only one of the EU approved and funded Erasmus Mundus Masters programmes to specialise in traditional humanities with a modern languages background. The Crossways Consortium comprises 6 top-class European universities.

For further information, please check the programme's official website and the universities' websites on the Useful Links section on the left. If you wish to have a specific question answered, please click on Email here and submit your query.

Mundus students, here you will find regular posts regarding the universities of the consortium, tips, activities, events, pictures, etc. Apart from checking it regularly to keep yourself up to date, a good way to use the blog is through the search device. We already have a significant amount of information on some universities of the consortium, so if you want to find information on a specific city, type its name in the search field (top left). You will then see all posts related to that specific city (because each post title contains the city's name in it). You can also type "General" in order to find information concerning everybody.

Perpignan: Bacalhau

by Lorenza Tiberi

If policitians knew the secret for gathering many people from different countries, they wouldn't waste so much public money to organise a G8 (or something similar). Mundus students in Perpignan discovered the secret, which can be summarised in a single word "BACALHAU".

Bacalhau is not a magic word like abracadabra or Hocus pocus, it's simply the most popular Portuguese dish. Thanks to Alessandra, who went in mission in Lisbon few days ago, we had the great experience of eating bacalhau (cod). This mouth-watering deliciousness managed to gather together in a living room 99% of the Mundus students in Perpignan (at least 10 different nation were represented) and few exeternal representatives from France, Brazil and India. Unfortunatelly the Chinese representative has not attended the event but we all wish to be at 100% soon.

An intercultural Pantagruelian dinner is always a good legerdemain to make people happy.
