It has already been the last month of my EVS
journey and I am wondering how can time flies that quick. To remind myself
quickly, I am a volunteer in Athens, Greece. I am here since December and my
task is to give English Classes and Creative Classes for refugee and migrants
children. It is going on very well. At the beginning, I must admit that I was a
bit scared because neither I, nor the children speak common language. We
started our lessons with zero knowledge of English and now, you cannot imagine
how we improved. We are continuing improving each day and it’s amazing to see
how eager they are to learn and share. It’s even more amazing the relationship
of them between each other.
Except from the tasks and volunteering, it’s great
to pass time in Greece. There are many places to visit and I am trying to
create some time for travelling. Last month, I have been travelling around
Italy since it’s very easy to find cheap flights from Athens. This time, I hope
to visit the islands and villages close to Athens. The weather started to be
nice so, it’s the time to enjoy the Greek islands. One sad thing is that Greece
is very expensive when I compared with other EU countries in terms of food and
clothing. Here you can find some photos related to my EVS experience.
Have a
nice day to you all.
