Week 3 – Theatre Time !
This week started too fast. First of all, we have created some brochures and posters. Then, we placed them to the neighbourhoods which is close to our youth centres. As you know we wanted to introduce the events to the city. Now it begins ! Also, FITT Timisoara has created the newest indoor music festival […]
5 tips for EVS
After not writing in the blog for some time, I started thinking that very hardly I would be able to remember what happened every single week, also considering that it’s not possible that every single week in the past 10 months had something minimally interesting to tell. News flash, it doesn’t. A lot of week […]
My EVS Experience – Week XX & XXI
After the project was finished, I got back in the office. This time to start working on writing my own Erasmus+ project, to apply for the October deadline. Speaking honestly, this process might have taken me a bit longer than supposed, bearing in mind that it was the first time I was writing one. Meanwhile, […]
My EVS Experience – Week IXX
This week FITT hosted an Erasmus+ project in which I took part. The project is about developing a network for youth organizations from different countries of Europe and, in these days, we worked together in order to discuss about it and “shape it”. This was one of the training courses that gave me the most […]
My EVS Experience – Week XVIII
This week, from the moment since I arrived, was one of the most difficult for me. Despite being happy and glad for being here, the feeling that life also continues to exist back home sometimes is scary. As typical Latino, I come from a big family and, what I suprisingly got to realize here, is […]
My EVS Experience – Week XVI & XVII
Timișoara is, in my opinion, a city that never stops. But behind all the culture and entertainment, there was something that caught my eye since the very first time I came here. Unlike what I was used back home, students here seem to have a voice and, more than that, power of initiative. There are […]
My EVS Experience – Week XV
One of the best parts of the EVS is the fact that we have the opportunity to discover the surroundings and the country we are leaving in. Being a person that has lived her entire life close to the sea (pretty much everyone in Portugal does), it was one of the things I missed the […]
My EVS Experience – Week XIV
As I mentioned before, this week FITT hosted the event to commemorate the International Youth Day. To celebrate this, we sent a special invitation to the EVS volunteers who are doing their projects in Romania, and to everyone else that wanted to join us. Pretty much my entire week was dedicated to the preparation of […]
My EVS Experience – Week XII & XIII
These weeks were been quite calm, which is weird considering the rush of things happening in the past few weeks. I took this time to do some office work, like doing feedback reports for the project’s that happened during the past months and decorating my house a bit, so it feels more “like a home”. […]
My EVS Experience – Week XI
During this week, the Youth House hosted an event called “Cafe21”, promoted by Timisoara2021, the year when Timisoara is going to be European Capital of Culture. This type of event is happening every month, in different places of Timisoara with different topics related to the project. It’s an event for everyone to come and have […]
My EVS Experience – Week X
After all the projects were finished, I received the visit from a friend from Portugal, that came to stay in Timisoara for a few days. In the first two days, I showed around in Timisoara and, for the next three, we enjoyed the fact that the city is so close to the border with Serbia, […]
My EVS Experience – Week IX
To continue with the non-stop wave of projects, as soon as the previous one was finished, we immediately started a Youth Exchange, named “Intervention for Youth”. This time it was a bit different, as I was not taking part as a participant but instead helping around with what was needed, as for example, logistical matters. […]
