Let’s make Lipovei great again
Being part of the team Lipovei is not always the easiest ”job” you’ll ever find. This youth center was very special for many people I was working with previous summer, and as important as it was for them, we’re trying other people to see the perspective this place has. People in this neighborhood are just […]

Make a mistake
I’m trying to remind myself that it’s okay to make mistakes. in fact, I think I should make more mistakes. if anything, I think it’s a mistake sometimes to be so guarded and being too afraid to make a mistake. I would be more productive if I just went ahead and make a move. and […]
Pljeskavica time
After a long time without going out, I have finally seen Timisoara again. How we were discussing going to eat pljeskavica, with my friends Katsia and Arus, for a long time, that day finally came. I was wondering why Katsia is so amazed by this pljeskavica, how she was eating even before, and this recommendation […]

Inspire me
I don’t remember how I came up with the name. but it was something I needed at that time. and “inspire me” became my blog title. it’s funny how here we are, over a decade later. and I can still resonate with something I wrote when I was 14. inspire me. this is something I […]

International environment can give you a great chance to improve your English skills of any level. Work with local community requires some knowledge of Romanian, which I have been trying to learn since the […]
