June – you’re a genius

June has always been one of my favorite months of the year. For me this month it’s almost always like a restart and this year wasn’t an exception. The beginning of the month brought me a lot of energy, positivism and desire to get things done and so far it was about everything.

On the first of June I had an workshop about my home country with the students from Wojkowice with whom we already spent a few days back in March and now, having them again and sharing my workshop with them gave me a feeling of familiarity, we all enjoyed the session and that made everything easier. Same for the other one about Climate change.

3rd of June was one of the most spontaneous days so far, we decided to take a one day trip to Lodz, just to visit the city and to enjoy the time together and it was a good idea and a really nice trip, another occasion to go in depth of Poland and make some  great memories.

And after we retuned back to Warsaw- which remains one of my favorite polish cities- I realized that soon most of the volunteers will leave, and I can’t believe how the time flies so I had my moment of reflection and I felt lucky I am here, now and I kept feeling like that till I turned 26, on that day I haven’t done something specific- I didn’t feel to- but just being with the volunteers and playing something or simply chit-chatting around- it was the kind of day I needed. It suddenly made me understand how far I arrived in this ESCape, how many things I’ve learned and how I changed myself without noticing or without making a purpose out of it.  At the day I was staring at the map trying to find the next must-visit place for me, I still need to decide.

In the days after I joined one of the most interesting and well organized event about volunteering from the last period and I learned a lot about the topic, it was really cool and it’s just the middle of June. I am excited to see what’s coming up!
