Month number four - in Action!

Polish Barbeque 

Almost 4 months had passed, and Zielona Gora brought some nice people along that I met during my stay. So, finnaly, after so much time of English classes inside with her,one of this people, Karolina,  invited us for a barbeque at her house.  We had together with us two other volunteers, Ilina, from Bulgaria and Kate, from Ireland, which are working with horses, doing hippo-therapy for kids. We had a great time playing different kinds of silly games, but also eating the famous kielbasa, the polish traditional sausages, and many kinds of cakes and salads. Yammy! Thanks Karolina! :)

Silvia's blog post! Uwaga!

 

In the school of the cute Eryk there was the children's day. There, our children have had the opportunity to play side by side with some disabled children and other children. Really nice "school of life" for understanding that  we all are the same. 
After a tasty ice cream that did us some beautiful mustaches, we are full of energy and ready to play! Let’s go to school!

Polish summer. Uploading...

Here are some recent activity that we had in May and June during our EVS project:

Poznan trip

On 19 and 20 May we got the chance to see Poznan, a really nice city that me and Silvia got to see in two days, all by walking with a map in our hands, a thing that is easier than it looks like with some practice of course :)

Some more bits of action


Remember me? I am the romanian EVS volunteer that started a blog so that YOU might see how an EVS project looks like, and maybe become a part of it sometime :). (It's pretty fun I can definitely say).
Seems I'm not doing such a great job in updating news, (which is one of my tasks for the project) but I am doing my best here.
So, here are some activities that we did lately on our project. We, as in : me Silvia and Katinka, my co-workers.


Teaching English in Primary School
For me it was the first time ever to teach english, even if it was one of my dreams as a child - being a teacher. Seems it was finnaly happening :)
 Ms. Hanna Kulczyk, their english teacher introduced us to 5 classes, from 6 to 11 years old kids.

Warsawa, you are way too tangled!

Today we arrived in Warsaw for our on-arrival training. We will be here until Saturday.

After 6 boring hours by train that included also some sleep (or a lot I might say :), and some fun with my EVS companions, Silvia and Katinka, we got to the tangled city. We tried to take the bus, but we had no chance to actually understand what bus we should take or if we should go left or right :)

Going together realizing our dreams - EVS Promotion blog


New begining! :) I am finally in Poland and have just started working on the EVS Project "Going together realizing our dreams"  as an EVS volunteer.

What does that mean?

EVS means the European Volunteer Service that allows young people between 18 and 30 years, from European countries, to have a new experience, in a new country, a new culture, with the purpose of self-development and  personal skill achievement.  (See more information about EVS here). Also, check out  more information on the official polish website for EVS project that Mariusz Socha, pastor of the Baptist Church in Zielona Gora, is coordinating.
