Our Turkish volunteer Ayse presented to students at Gymnazium in Čadca about her country, culture, traditions, and customs. She explained some things about her religion Islam and showed interesting places to visit in Turkey. Students were curious about why she has chosen Slovakia, how is her Slovak language going and which is her favorite Slovak food.
We (Mirka and Lenka) were at the first EU Aid Volunteers meeting in Ireland.
Volunteers are taking part in the teaching of English language in schools or in Keric. In the non-formal and fun way, they teach children or adults not just about language, but also about their culture and traditions.
Why Slovakia? What interested you in this country?
Honestly, I sent my first two applications to Greece and Portugal (I didn't mind the idea of being surrounded by the sea). I didn't get answers from these countries, so I decided to try in Slovakia.
Well, I don't know how, but I've already swung into the other half of my EVS. This is evidenced by the fact that I was at Mid-Term training a week ago.
It was an exhausting 3 days full of talking, complaining, getting to know each other... I have to say that I enjoyed it and I found that even though my project is not all pink, there are also worse projects, but mainly that EVS is about me and it's up to me how I make it.
It is hard to believe that already four months have passed since the beginning of my EVS in Lancaster. Since I first came to Lancaster and Morecame College in the north of England, a lot has happened. Countless experiences have been added to me, I have met many inspiring people, seen many interesting places and gained many valuable experiences.
CODET II-project continued with a big training hosted by Keric.
Our volunteers had an idea for their English lesson students and invited them to make a forest!
