November was a very rich and meaningful month for me. One of the highlights was the seminar, which was an amazing experience. It took place in Benicàssim, a beautiful place by the sea.

This month I continued to adapt better and better. First of all, I was introduced to the mayor of Quart de Poblet and I was able to discuss my integration into Spanish life, but also within Quart de Poblet and my impressions. During my work time at QDN, we prepared for Halloween, which was a

During my stay, I had the chance to visit the City of Arts and Sciences  a really impressive place, very modern, with unique architecture.

The month of July, just like all the previous ones, was exciting, fun, and unforgettable — full of bright and memorable moments. This month, we had the Holi Run twice.

¡Hola! Mi cuarto mes en Valencia y Quart de Poblet ha sido algo más caluroso que los meses anteriores. He aprovechado la temperatura “normal” de verano (para un sueco), sabiendo que el sol y la temperatura van a ser bastante inaguantables en julio y agosto. He ido a bañarme en la piscina de mi tía

The month of May was filled with various events, both pleasant and not so much, but I prefer to focus on the positive ones.

¡Hola! En abril, que fue mi tercer mes de voluntariado en Valencia, he aprovechado mi tiempo libre para hacer excursiones y viajes cortos. El primer fin de semana fui con Maja a Montanejos para andar por los acantilados, ver la famosa cascada grande y bañarnos en el agua termal. Las vistas eran preciosas, y hacía

My third month in Valencia has been filled with creativity, culture, and meaningful connections. While the Natural Science Museum is still closed for renovations, this has given me the chance to explore other enriching activities that have helped me grow both personally and professionally.

¡Hola a todos!Me llamo Alma y soy la nueva voluntaria en los centros juveniles de Quart de Poblet. El plan es quedarme aquí durante seis meses. Mi primer mes en Valencia ha sido estupendo. En el poco tiempo que he estado en un ambiente más soleado que Suecia, me he recargado de mucha energía y

This month was quite interesting and eventful. We had an activity with teenagers related to ecology.
