De ce voluntar european?

Imagine
Numele meu este Corina aș vrea să îți spun că dacă încă te mai gândești să devii voluntar, ar trebui să îți iei inima în dinți și să mergi acolo unde te gândești că poți fi util. Eu am început experiența mea de voluntar în octombrie, în Salonic, Grecia. De ce? Bună întrebare, asta au întrebat toți cei dragi mie care au aflat că voi face asta. Surpriza lor era mare și le dau dreptate, în iulie 2019 absolvisem o facultate foarte bună, licențiat în studii administrative suna bine, aveam și un loc de muncă care îmi plăcea și unde creșteam alături de o echipă absolut minunată. Atunci de ce? Chiar de ce? Aveam toate aceste lucruri, dar voiam să ajut, să fiu mai utilă societății. Voiam să experimentez lucruri noi și să îmi dau seama dacă există și alte oportunități pentru viitorul meu care m-ar face mai fericită cu ceea ce fac. Din aceste lucruri s-a născut dorința de fi voluntar și am aplicat pentru un proiect în Grecia la un moment dat.   A trecut ceva timp, uitasem de aplicație când am afl

It was the 5th month of stay in this “Beautiful City” and I was feeling belonged more and more, everyday. It was a good coincidence that we started the month, planning the “20 beautiful things” project. It was a project about 20 things we found beautiful in Târgu Frumos. The definition of beauty changes from one person to another, so it was exciting to wait for the results from my colleagues. 20 works of photography, videos, music and ceramics. We started working on it.     Meanwhile, the open call for local volunteers to help us during the project resulted. On the very first week of July, we met those amazing eight girls, coming from Târgu Frumos and other cities. We organized a welcome meeting, with activities and plannings of our workshops. Each international member of Arts Lab made a team and we easily planned out our workshop program. With their help, we started having local kids and teenagers every week.   My workshops started happening in the ceramic studio we recently made. Eve
