Busy days, the best moments

The last month in the organization was quite busy and crowded. So, firstly together with guys we prepared a lot of handcraft souvenirs for the Christmas market. It was a special project, because all of the souvenirs were made of recycled materials, and I enjoyed myself during those creative workshops.

Not less enjoying was the Youth Exchange. It was the first time for me to participate in the project like this and I found it truly exciting. The week of very well-planned activities passed quickly, I learned a lot about the topic (Hi-Tech Youth Work), I met a lot of new people coming from Latvia, Malta and Spain. But what is more important, I made good friends with the best guys, we had so much fun together, I can’t remember when I laughed so much the last time! It was an incredible week!

The final event was the staff party, the best ending of the year before Christmas holidays. The first thing I was surprised with when I entered the room was the smell of the hot wine, which is absolutely not typical in Sicily, but it is very popular in Ukraine. So the party started very nicely for me with lots of sweet memories, warm atmosphere, and nice people.

Finally this busy month is about to end. Time to relax and enjoy Christmas mood!

Tanti auguri di buon Natale e felice Anno Nuovo!

Un’Europa senza barriere

Sono una volontaria nel Sud Italia, a Palermo e l'esperienza che sto facendo è davvero di speciale. Essere parte di una grande squadra che sta lavorando per i bisogni e i diritti per la gente con disabilità che sono svantaggiati in qualche modo e l'idea di fare la differenza nella vita di qualcuno è una grande sensazione. Penso che SVE dovrebbe essere più diffuso. SVE è un programma ERASMUS +, organizzato e finanziato dall'Unione Europea. Ieri si è tenuta il 22 maggio a Palermo la Festa dell’Europa 2019. Questa festa non è una sola festa ma anche la festa per tutti cittadini europei…senza barriere, senza pregiudizi! L’Unione europea non è ancora perfetta. C’è ancora tanto da fare, tanti problemi. Ma anche L'Unione europea ci sono tanti cose impagabili come: il rispetto della dignità umana, la libertà, l’uguaglianza, la solidarietà e è il diritto per tutti di essere felici. L'UE promuove l'inclusione e la partecipazione delle persone con di...

Painting lessons are over :(

The nine-month course of painting in the organization has ended. We tried a lot of techniques during this period - various painting techniques, various textures, drawing, mosaic, wax painting, graphics. The themes were very different - traditional Ukrainian technique Petrikovka, landscapes, portraits, logos, etc. The guys showed themselves on the best side and each of them is special in the creative way. Someone has shown himself in helping others with drawing, someone has a very specific style, someone has the ability to draw portraits, someone abstraction, someone very painstaking in work but someone is very temperamental. But certainly everyone is talented and everyone deserves praise.
