More about Mid-Term

This training was really useful for me, actually i think that the trainers were really well-organized, they reminded us step by step what we have done during our EVS, what was wrong, what we wanted to change etc... Of course all of us have thought about this earlier, but now we were thinking and realizing in different way. Then we were sharing to each other and we saw that some of us had some difficulties during his EVS, some not, and it was really interesting to listen and understand what kind of problems u can meet during EVS and how u have to behave in such situations...
One was really very interesting workshop with frames. The trainers gave us frames made by papers and told us to take pictures with these frames, pictures should be about our EVS, how we see our EVS. First we were confused, didn`t understand very much the tasks, but when we began working, it was really very funny and interesting, every little thing was remembering us smth about EVS, even I took pictures of Traffic lights and trash bin, because even these little things, whivh made kind of cultural shock was very important for me :)
And I realized by myself how much important are these trainings during EVS, especially last one, mid-term, for me it was kind of psychological preperation that EVS is finishing and u have come back to ur country and think more about how u will use this experience which EVS has given to u :)

First impressions about Kazimierz Dolny

Nine hours on the way with train, full of people, and a lot of noise... So, the way to Kazimierz dolny wasn`t very much comfortable, although it was a little bit better when I met another EVS volunteers from half oh the way, so it has become more interesting :) we shared information and EVS experience during the way, and so the time went faster when we were together, and talking a lot :)

At last we went to Kazimierz dolny, it was really very small and beautiful place, like village, but comfortable and sweet place, really. City centre, little and full of people, some men with guitar singing some song, some people are selling souvenirs, there was like a big family, everyone knows each other, everyone says "czesc", and really warm atmosphere. And our hotel was on a hill, the same, quite place, surrounded by nature, and really comfortable one :)
Firt day was just for arrival and have a rest, we met everyone each other, the trainers too, we were 14 people, I already knew 4 of them from my on-arrival training, we made one session with trainers to make the other days program, what we are interested in and what we wanted to understand etc... So first day was "light", we really needed to have a rest, so we slept early :)

Costa - Brava

Costa - Brava was the most beautiful place that we have seen in Spain, it was another beauty, mountain, sea, island, everything together and full of people, from different countires, but the most funny was how we went there :)
We decided to go there by autostop :) 4 girls with sleeping bags prepared, wrote on big paper "Costa - Brava" and on the road were waiting for some cars who were going on the same way :)
First, we thought it was hard, but max 20 minutes and the drivers were stopping and tooking us, I have to be honest, most of them were males, but anyway all of them were so much polite and we felt ourselves so much comfortable and good, but from the beggining everyone was saying, 4 girls, it`s impossible, noone will carry u, but we did it, in about 5 - 6 hours we were in Roses, and the last driver, French men, he was so kind, he had another way but for us he changed the plans and took us in Roses,2 hours he was driving for us, I think we`ll never forget him, and he said, just he wants that we had good stereotype about french people.
Roses - it`s one of the beautiful city in Costa - Brava, but we wanted to reach the place named "Cadaques", becaue "Costa - Brava" is famous with this resort, but first day we stopped in Roses, enjoyed with beautiful weather, sea, surroundigs and our meal :) yea, we slept on the beach with our sleeping bags, it was so nice, in the morning to wake up at about 7 o`clock and the cleanest sea, sound of birds, noone on the beach, just we_sleeping there somewhere :)) In Roses mostly there are French people, most of them has rest-homes there and on every season are resting there, it`s very beautiful city with good people :) but we had another day - another plan - "Cadaques" :)

Khinkali and Georgian evening in Barcelona :)

We gathered 5 georgians in Barcelona, so we decided to make Georgian evening with georgian dishes and invite our friends :) and also Pati ( one of our georgian friend) was leaving... so we decided to make also good-bye party for her and made our favourite one, which is the most national - Khinkali, it looks like this :)
It took long time to make it, as always, but it`s so tasty and we all missed it so muuch, it was great :) it has inside meat and it is put in flour, but is needs special form, usually in Georgia we don`t do it, it is done in our families very often by our parents, or we eat in some special places, but now there aren`t our parents and speial places, because we are abroad,so we had to make it ourselves :) bur my mam is so happy that at last I`ve begun coocking smth :)
Yea, it was pleasure for me to do this and I ate a lot :P we drank also georgian drinks, sang and danced a little bit, so we had "little Georgia there :)

Gaudy Style in Barcelona

Three weeks in Barcelona, it was the crazyest and most wonderfull days in my life, there are so many beautiful places to visit, so many things to see and feel, but the most great is the emotion when u just walk in the street, the people are so much full of positive emotions, In the main street La Rambla u can see a lot of different style of people, it`s very long and the most famous street in Barcelona, some people are standing like sculptures the whole day and if u will come closer only then u can realize that they are real persons and sometimes they are "dangerous" too :)) some of them are just dancing in the streets, singing and doing whatever they want...
Everyday we were trying to visit different wonderful places of Barcelona, we were in Gaudy park, park Labirinte, which is very famous and all the time full of turists, u can find a lot of people there all the time, Gaudy style is very popular in the whole Barcelona, there are also muzeums, which is called Gaudy Houses, where is everything in style of gaudi, and I like it so much,, because u can find everything colourful there, and so beautisul :)
