Take a selfie with the Statue of Carlo Felice, or better yet, ask somebody else to take a picture of you with the statue while you imitate its characteristic pose.

Task no.2

Evidence verified by: one activity organiser

If you like learning about ancient history, we’ve got the challenge for you!
Visit a museum, library or other place of culture and try to find out which is the oldest piece in its collection.
If you’re visiting a modern or contemporary museum, look for the most recent instead!
Write the answer down as evidence or upload a picture as evidence.
﻿
Attention please! Many museums don’t allow you to take photos inside, ask for permission first.

Task no.3

Evidence verified by: one activity organiser

Find a public building (e.g. the City Hall or the State Archive) and take a picture of its flags: do you know what they all represent? Can you spot the Sardinian flag and do you know what its name is (in Italian)?
Try and write down your answer and upload it as evidence along with the picture.

Task no.4

Evidence verified by: one activity organiser

Sardinian is an ancient and beautiful language, enriched by an enormous number of local dialects. Can you learn any saying in the local language?
