...Quarantine mood...

Hello everyone!
These days have been quite slow because of the virus that has spread. We volunteers were forced first to reduce our activities in schools and then completely end. We had to reinvent ourselves to continue our activities and keep in touch with our children, in fact we created a group on Facebook where we shared videos on activities to offer them.
This is the link of the group

Personally these days at home have been used in a fruitful way, in fact I tried to keep myself active. I studied, I wrote a project, I tried to create videos for children and I sewed masks. 



I admit that I am not very good, I am rather clumsy but I think the most important thing in all is the intention.
As a volunteer I tried to carry on my activities trying not to break down and use my creativity. In these particular moments, I felt it was essential to be able to keep in touch with the children to try to make them feel better. I think the essence of a volunteer is this: being able to give support through one's skills at any time especially in times of crisis.
We are here to play an important role, which we sometimes forget from the fun and frenzy of the days, to be a point of reference for the community and support it. This is our mission.
One very nice moment that I would like to mansion was the Easter Parade in Resita, that was a really good moment in which we tried to distract the people from the difficult moment and enjoy from their window the parade.  






My mood has not always been high, my thoughts have always been directed towards my country and my family, but I have tried to give my best even in this uncomfortable situation.


                                     I hope you are well and wish you a good night.

Well, well, well.. I'm Martina and from October I'm a volunteer in Nevo Parudimos, this association is located in Resita, Romania. Three month are already passed, but just now I feel the importance to give some feedback to my self and why not also to some other people that will be interested to my new experience here. But now I will introduce little bit my self, yes, for sure you will say "oh this is the boring part" but reader sometimes is nice to remember who we are. Okay, let's start. I'm Martina, I'm Italian and I'm 25 years old. I have master degree in social service and social policies.   What brought me here?   Two main reasons brought me here, the first I want to get more experience in the social field before be involved in a work and the second love (but this is another story). After this...it's time to tell you about my first months here. When I arrived here wasn't for me a new place, I

...Thinking about the past days...

Hi readers. To bring some positivity I want to think back to the past days and the beautiful activities carried out with my children and other volunteers. At the beginning of my volunteering I was not sure how to use my talent here, I am a reserved and shy person and sometimes these characteristics can be an impediment for many things. After some time I found my way of carrying out activities and relating mainly to a third language: Romanian. Little by little the relationships with the children intensified, especially with the children of the orphanage and I found more and more interesting methods and activities. I have created many activities aimed at road education, science, the English language and emotions. The teachers and other volunteers, in particular Ariane, supported me in improving my activities more and more. With the arrival of new volunteers, it was easier for me to have a betterelationship with the group.  There were really a
