Hello! This is Tavi, from Romania. I have just started my ESC experience in Lisbon! What made me come here? Well, when I was 18 my older brother forced me to go on an Erasmus+ funded youth exchange and I’ve been trying to go on these kinds of experiences ever since. It blew my mind… Continue reading O testemunho do Tavi
Today marks my third day in Lisbon doing my ESC project with Spin. I'm currently waiting to register at the health centre which has given me a *lot* of time to reflect, so I figure now is a good time to write down some of my first impressions. After a hectic day of travel (thank… Continue reading Annalise’s testimony No.1
Most of the times we focus to much on the things, that went wrong, that make us angry, sad and disappointed, but at the same time when we try to focus on the awesome, the great, the fantastic, we realize we don't have something to focus on, reflecting the good things seems impossible when we… Continue reading Justin’s testimony No.2
One and a half months after my ESC started, sitting behind a desk, looking out of the window I realized that I´m not a tourist. It just sunk in whilst brushing my hair. Took me a few days to get used to the feeling. After being here 3 and a half months I realized im… Continue reading Agnes’ testimony No.2
Estou aqui de volta! Sem dúvida aconteceram muitas coisas desde os primeiros dias de Março até agora. O tempo voou sem me aperceber. Realizaram-se algumas das minhas expectativas, como aprender mais sobre come funciona a Spin e sobre a mobilidade Europeia (em particular, a parte de envio). Estou satisfeita com a funções que estou a desempenhar… Continue reading O testemunho da Giulia
It’s already 4,5months. Exactly half of the project. Time flies so fast. When I’m thinking about it, I still feel, we are just in the beginning. Actually, before, at home, 9 months looked like a long time and now it’s opposite. I feel like, it’s not enough time for everything.
It has already been more than 4 months since I moved to Portugal. Half of my time on this project has already passed and the same amount of time is yet to come. I still feel like I have just arrived here and this is barely the beginning. There are still a lot of new things happening and many more places got on my wish list to visit.
Mes impressions et mon ressenti en arrivant ici. 1. En arrivant à Lisbonne, j'ai eu des étoiles dans les yeux parce que je rêver de voir cette ville dont j'entendais parler à la télévision avec les monuments,la nourriture et la gentillesse des gens ici. 2. Je me dis que j'ai de la chance de pouvoir… Continue reading Testimony: My internship in Portugal by Pauline
There are thousand reasons to do EVS, and I do believe all of them are important. Each volunteer starts project with his own story. Questions about why now, why this country, why this project, why EVS are frequently heard questions. You may ask, why I left my dog, family and friends, stable job and cool… Continue reading O testemunho da Magda
It was a cold day in March, raindrops dripping on my window, when I checked Gmail on my mobile phone. I'd been expecting this mail for weeks and indeed it had finally arrived. Alas the answer was not what i had expected! My application for a grant for university was denied. I was furious. How… Continue reading O testimunho do Justin
