When I try to explain to people how I felt when I got to Biala Podlaska, it´s really strange, no one can understand I felt I was at home from the first moment!!!!!
Well, in my project, I could choose the place to live: living in a big house with my mentor, her daughter and the other volunteer from England, Sarah, or just living alone in a flat. I chose the first one, and I am happy about that.
It was wonderful to meet these people and the opportunity to share every day with them:-)
Agnieszka,
my mentor ( because all the volunteers in these EVS projects have a mentor), is such a special person. I learnt so much from her, everyday. She was a kind of guide to me,
" you are a light by which I travel into.......". She has a daughter,
Ewelina, a small lovely girl, who was so confused sometimes...three different languages at home!!!!
Sarah is the other
volunteer, from England,
" the geordie lass", she´s great. We worked together, we lived together....and we were so different from each other. But I can´t imagine my project without Sarah. How many hours we worked together!!!! How many times we were so tired at night that we could just fall asleep anywhere!!How many soups we waited for in EPI( the restaurant next to our working place)!!! How many lessons we took together!!!! And, why not saying this, how many beers we drank together!!!!!!! Eh, Sarah???
Discovering
my little international family was one of the greatest feelings in my life. Thanks to you all.
