Karolina’s letter 

Part 1 

Poland, 10.09.2010 

There should be the time to sum up, call it a day and move forward… It’s time now  

<18.07-02.09.2010>  It’s so hard to summarize this life-changing period in just a few sentences…:( 

Usually, I don’t cry. I cry in two particular situations: Either when my hormones get the better of me (PMS) – meaningless … or when I see and feel true, deep, heart-rending emotions – then I can’t hold back my tears. During my stay in Romania I cried once, truly. One person possesses the part of my soul. I found … and left my soul-mate in Iasi…

It seems that Poland likes us a lot, because Karinna is going on a very nice internship on DT

I’ll let you read the JD (Job Description) and advise you to follow her example Read the rest of this entry »

I want to start from quotation:

“Romania is beautiful country, but a lot of surprises”

by Gabriel

It was about CFR, but in the long term it is good sentence to sum up all my experiences connected with my exchange in Iasi.

Hello everybody,

I am Kamila Ossowska from Poland. I am almost 20 years old. I come from eastern part of Poland. I am studying Architecture and Urban on Bialystok Technical University now. Read the rest of this entry »

GREAT NEWS!

Sanda Babiuc and Ioana Gavrilescu, two members of AIESEC Iasi are going in Exchange in Krakow, Poland! They will be interns at the Towarszystwo Przyjaciół Dzieci Orphanage.

I sent each of them an email asking them how they feel that in a week or two they will be going in exchange in Poland.

And they said…

…Sanda

“Hey dear

Sorry for answering so hard, but I was away from town.

Exchaaaaaaaaaaaaaange —> I am very excited and I can’t wait to get there!! I think that when I board the plane, my heart will shrink a lot ) I hope I’m going to make it a great experience and be a good ambassador of AIESEC Iasi.
Have a lovely day!

Sanda”

…Ioana

“Hey!

So nice you asked me :X you made me think a bit more about this )

Well I am very excited! I can’t wait to see how it is when I get there, when I meet all the other trainees and people from AIESEC Krakow. I can’t wait to see how it is at work.

I will be working with little children from an orphanage and I am a bit nervous because they do not speak much English , but very little from what I understood. This will be one of my roles actually – to teach them English. And it is hard to do something for them, to  motivate them, play self discovery games and help them when they do not speak English.

That’s why everyday I think of games and activities that would suit them.

All in all…it is the first time when I leave home for such a long time so it will be a bit hard…but I know for sure that I’ll be another person after this experience.  To do something for children with problems, inspire them and at the same time live to the full in an international environment….what can be more perfect than this? :X

I’ll keep you updated with impressions when I get there and I am sure they will be many and very beautiful.

Heh, I think I wrote a novel…but the simple thought of going and living this experience makes me dream at a complicated novel, full of action and symbols ) Life changing indeed!

Kisses!

Ioana”

Hello there! We promised more of Sanda and Ioana gone in Exchange in Poland, Krakow and here it is!

“We have been Exchange Participants in Krakow for three weeks already and it’s more than awesome!

Still, while we sit to write this, we cannot find words to express how wonderful our experience has been. Time passes quickly as we enjoy every moment. We might not have believed it before, but Exchange is indeed a feeling that cannot be described unless one has lived it.

Krakow is one of the most beautiful cities in Europe- you should definitely put it on your Must See list. We can never get enough of walking and sensing the age of the buildings or old streets. This city is full of life and we have embodied its soul into ourselves.

The work at the NGO brings us as much excitement and joy as the city itself. The staff is very welcoming and we feel like part of a family there. Working with the kids takes you to another world; one where smiling and laughing all the time is a rule. They give us so much love and treat us as special guests. We draw, play football, create quizzes, organize competitions, teach them about our culture and simply engage ourselves in any activity that puts a smile on their innocent faces. Seeing them grow attached to us as days pass by is one of the most fulfilling emotions one can ever experience.

Furthermore, after work, we have so much fun! Making new friends has never been so easy! Distance now holds a completely different notion for us as we have seen before us just how small the world is.

Romania, Singapore, Taiwan, Hong Kong, Turkey, Spain, Georgia, Ukraine, Russia, Kazakhstan, Morocco, and China- we have all united as one for a common goal, under a common experience.

We were told that Exchange is about people who want to make the world a better place and now, we see just how true it is. Exchange is a challenge that after going through, you can only count what you gained.

So when will you pack your things to join us in Exchange?

Lots of love from Krakow!!!

Sanda & Ioana”
