Silla

This month felt slower and more reflective—definitely a rollercoaster of emotions, but in a good way. I spent a lot of time thinking about what’s next for me and trying to figure out opportunities for the coming year. At the start of the month, I found myself spending most of my time at home. The

To be honest, the beginning of this month was very similar to other ones, with lots of gatherings, settling back into Valencia, and more. However, this month, La DANA hit Valencia and nearby villages, and I want to talk about it in this blog. As someone living in Silla, we were lucky not to face

August always feels like a transitional month for me, but September has a unique energy. Perhaps because of school years starting in September, it feels more like the start of a new year than January ever does. This year, as summer came to a close, I found myself preparing for new beginnings—both personally and professionally.

At the beginning of this month, my brother from Poland visited me. I felt like a tourist in the city again as we went around visiting places. I appreciated that he came to see me after a very long time. We spent some time together in Madrid and Valencia. He also visited me in Silla,

This month has been very different from other months. It was full of Erasmus events, travels, meetings with old friends, and encounters with completely new people, all while spending a lot of time together. Spoiler alert: this one will be much longer than the others because I don’t want to miss any part of it.

Hello again, It’s hard to believe that it’s been 6 months here. Unlike other months, I didn’t have as many mobility activities; however, it was full of reflections and time spent with myself. But most importantly, I had my first-ever birthday celebration abroad. I had the chance to celebrate my birthday on the beach with

This month, I had an opportunity to dive deep into team dynamics and participate in various team-building activities with my team. This experience helped me understand not only the hands-on aspects but also the significance of the support team working in the background and the balance between the two.  Together with the team, I had

Hola! Just like in previous months, this month was filled with its share of highs and lows, along with a mix of emotions. The beginning of the month was rather typical, with the days flowing by in a somewhat monotonous manner, mostly focused on my tasks and spending time with my flatmates. I appreciated this

Hola! It’s been 3 months since I started my journey, and I can confidently say that this month has been the most fulfilling so far. I’ve probably spent more time on the road than at home, but every moment has been worth it. My month began with a visit to my friend in Barcelona, who

Hello again, It has been 2 full months since I’ve been here. The flow of time is so relative for me; sometimes I feel, “Oh, it’s been 2 full months, and I haven’t done anything,” and sometimes “it’s been just 2 months, and I have more than enough time.” I’m not sure if everyone is

Hello everyone! I am Burcu, I am from Türkiye, and I have just started my one-year volunteering journey in Silla, Valencia. Although packing and saying goodbye to my friends and family were not the easiest, I am thrilled to be here. It’s been almost a month since I started this journey, and in this blog,

On the first week I went with a group of youngsters from Agres to Brussels through Paris on an adventurous bus trip. I saw a lot of inspiring things, how the intitutes od the European Union work and made me feel more European, we visited the Atomium, the Minieurope, the Parlamentarium, and other institutes as

I spent my 1st of November with  Gemma, Alex, Rafeta and Enrique preparing our Halloween lunch with lentil wraps, Halloween pizza and our unique ingredients-swapped poppy seed cake, discovering that my automatic cooking skills are something to be grateful for and appreciated by me. Furthermore a mistake compared to the flow of the original plan

Hello. I started the summer school. I was getting up at 8am. Why am I saying this because Valencia is so hot. I saw 42 degrees so you can imagine. When I was walking the school,I was melting. In the school every responsible people had a group. It was hard for me because I am
