These three months in Croatia have been an amazing experience. I have met interesting people from different parts of the world and, what is more important, some of them have become good friends. I have learnt more than I imagined I would do, not only in the professional field but also in the personal one. I have visited different cities in Croatia and other countries too. I have immersed myself in a new culture and I have enjoyed every aspect of it. Besides, I have learnt how to pronounce more than two consonants in a row in the same word (well, to be honest, I am still working on it). Looking back, I think I have been very lucky to share this experience with the Žmergo team and with the other volunteers I met here. Without them, the experience wouldn’t be so enriching so hvala!

My name is Robert and for the three months from 2016-11-01 to 2017-02-01 i was a volunteer in an Association called Žmergo, based in Opatija, Croatia.

How I decided to do an EVS? A few years ago before coming to Opatija, I participated in a Youth Exchange project in Limassol, Cyprus. That was the first time i have ever heard about Erasmus+ programs and EVS especially. The team there introduced me to the concept and from that very moment i knew that eventually i would apply and participate in such project. And that day came three years later, when i was working as a salesman in a top3 radio in Lithuania. I saw the possibility that they are inviting a person with some graphic and video experience, which i had, and i applied. The rest is history.

September ended and so my job contract. Barcelona was still hot, and after relaxing a couple of weeks, everything started over again. I didn’t have a job, I was not studying anything, I was feeling the pressure. Unemployment in Spain is high and the youth is not motivated either. Precisely. the same day I finished my contract, a friend came back from Croatia and visited me for some days. He did an EVS for a month in Murter island. He was very happy about it. EVS? I had another friend finishing his EVS in Croatia too. I got in touch with him, and everything went fast.. In February I was sitting in the Žmergo office in Opatija.

Vrijeme prolazi jako brzo, a najbolje o tome znaju EVS volonteri… Prije godinu dana Xavi je došao iz Barcelone u Hrvatsku i počeo volontirati u Žmergu te živjeti u Opatiji… Noelia i Robert su se pridružili Žmergu nešto kasnije, pa  su u 11. mjesecu 2016. zajedno stvorili odličan tim koji je napravio odlične stvari! Svi su doprineli Žmergovim aktivnostima svojim radom, svojom kreativnošću, odličnim idejama i pozitivnom energijom. Njihov rad mogli ste pratiti na našim društvenim stranicama, a volontere osobno upoznati tijekom raznih aktivnosti i događaja u Opatiji i Rijeci. Nažalost, došao je kraj njihovog volontiranja, no ostaju lijepe uspomene i prijateljstvo koje će trajati godinama. Uvijek ćemo ih toplo dočekati u Opatiji… Hvala Vam za sve dragi volonteri i želimo Vam puno sreće u životu i Vašim planovima!

Tamara dijeli s vama dosadašnja iskustva s Kanara!:)

Vrijeme ide polako ili brzo????

Španjolski jezik mi je sve bolji, mada nisam toga toliko svjesna… Ali zabavno je uhvatiti samu sebe kako ponekad razmišlam na španjolskom. 😀 (već sad!!!) (više…)
