My experience as a volunteer in Timișoara is bit an exceptional experience to be honest,
for me I took the decision to leave my comfort zone and I applied with FITT, when I go
accepted I took the decision to leave lot of things behind me and take that year especially
for me and my personal growth.
To begin with, there are countless opportunities that you can nourish and try, for me
personally I was in Media team, had the opportunity to use professional equipments that
somehow not accessible each day to use, nonetheless you can get involved in lot of
workshop and improve your skills, and of course that’s if you want to and want to make a
difference.
Nonetheless by volunteering, first I met some amazing people shout out to my
coordinator Diana, Adi, Flavia, Felix, I learned new language even tho I’m not fluent in it,
I started to understand people while speaking Romanian, I also did improve lot of my
skills which one of them was already in the video editing that I already knew.
Certainly such experience won’t be all roses and flowery, there ups and downs, there are
some frustrating moments maybe, but for me it was a part of growing and maturing,
hopefully I did leave a positive impact on the project and on the youth people that were
part of our activities.
And finally, I would say I did not regret anything of this to be honest, I would I do regret
not doing this earlier in life maybe! but yeah whoever is reading this I advise to try such
cool experience with a cool organization (I MEAN FITT OF COURSE).
