My EVS Experience – Week VI & VII

The next 10 days of my EVS were spent in Baia Mare, a city in the county of Maramures. During these days, I took part on an international training course, developed under the framework of the Erasmus+ programme.

The project, called “Creating a framework for tomorrow’s youth centers”, was a project for youth workers, where we learned about volunteering, management of volunteers, project writing, organizational development, among others.

Of course, during the free time, we got to know the city of Baia Mare and interact with the local community during some of our activities. This city is now the Romanian Youth Capital.

In our free day, in the middle of the project, we spent the day in a lake close to the city, making a barbecue and some of us fishing.

 

These ten days were great not only because I had the chance to know Baia Mare and learn more about youth work, but also because I got to know amazing people, from different countries in Europe that I feel lucky to have met.
