Participants had the opportunity to get to know Cartagena, a fantastic and romantic city on the Caribbean, that guards the secrets of history in its balconies and old buildings.

Our 9th Meeting in Kobe, Japan, was characterized as an absolute success. 2018 we visited Bologna, Italy and held an excellent meeting.
