AIESECgave me the opportunity to live a full experience, through sending me in EVSproject: Sunny Days in Cluj.From the beginning I decided to take thisopportunity to fulfill my experience [...] and enrich my development process.My storywas like this:Just in fewhours after my arrival, I had to go to Predeal for a preparation conference.Mountains,cold wind and feeling that you are high describe the mood of a satisfactionthat I could live in here.
Peoplefrom about 11 countries, shared experience, all this enriched my interculturalawareness.After aweek of qualitative trainings and many established relationships was time to goback to Cluj and to start my project.Meetingwith first wave, with my colleagues was emotional, because they already knewplaces in there and how the things are going.Integrationprocess was not so long, of course, moldavian people can handle situation veryquick and they get used to new environment easily. So, me and Cluj- a specialfriendship.
Meet my center
First dayat my center "Clujul are suflet", where I met the staff and teenagerswith whom I had to work for 1,5 months. [...] Meditationsat maths and english, ping-pong, movies, personal development activities,games, country presentation, all this I made toghether with them.
I gotused to them a lot, and I couldn’t imagine that in few weeks I’ll finish my workin there.[...] This washeaven. When you feel that you can have an impact on their life anddevelopment, that you can listen and help them, they become a part of you andyou a part of them.Amazingtime spend together, with jokes, fun, punishments and long talks. This becomealso my center, with my teenagers and I promised that one day I’ll visit them again.
My crazy team
2 girls from Estonia- Heili and Katlin and a boyfrom Greece- Alex. This is my crazy team. Besides that we worked together,lived in one apartment and went out every day, we traveled a lot. This made uscloser to each other. It was for the first time in my life when I hitch hiked.And it was really crazy. RoșiaMontana, Alba Iulia, Turda, Sibiu, Blaj, Jidvei, Sighisoara, Tirgul Mures,Hunedoara, Deva and finally, Timisoara. All this destinations full ofadventures made our experience more colorful. Tight friendship, sharedexperience and desire to go back to Cluj, are just some of points that uniteus. [...] a big thank to skypeand facebook that bring people closer. [...]
