[Please, bear with me. I swear I tried to be brief and concise.] When I first came here, we were told that January-February was usually the hardest time for volunteers – as it combines the return from our family for Christmas and the excruciatingly slow end of the cold, grim season. For me, though, March-April-May […]

Ten months have passed incredibly quickly. If I had known I would be staying longer, I definitely would have bought that Stray Kids ticket. Oh well, maybe next year. Although I did not get to travel as much as I had hoped this year, it makes sense when everyone around you is busy with their

Hi, it’s Alex again, reporting from the land where the sun is still a rare guest and rain is a loyal companion. I can’t believe how quickly time is flying by—sometimes I wish I could press pause, just to enjoy a little longer everything that’s happening around me. At work, everything is still fantastic.

Since writing my last report, many exciting things happened, but not so much of them are things that I would like to share. So it feels a little complicated to write this.I had my second (which is also the last) seminar, which was a surprisingly pleasent experience. Compared to the first one, I felt better

As expected with this report, things have just progressed without that many humps. After the cascade of events and experiences that populated my first few months, this second batch has been relatively quieter, and it’s been characterized by a progressive acclimatisation to my life here in Bremen. As always, I’ve been the main bearer of the

Hey ! Welcome to my second report !! I must say that I felt a little bit embarrassed when I read the others ‘reports because what I’ve seen was beautiful and everybody was talking about how they felt during the arrival months and explaining it with deep and complex emotions, and in comparisons my first

It has already been 8 months since I started my volunteering journey, and time has passed so quickly. Sometimes it feels like I just arrived, but when I look back, I see how much has happened and how much I’ve grown. Recently, I took part in my midterm seminar, which was a great moment

Having to write the final report for this project seemed like the most bizarre part of this one-year experience, because I really never thought this time would come. The difficulty of trying to fathom how fast but also how slow a year has passed really triggered a reflection process for me. On the one hand

It feels like I wrote my first report just yesterday, but here I am, already working on the second one. Time is moving fast, yet not a lot has happened since then. Well, nothing too fun anyways. Since my midterm seminar, I’ve been incredibly overwhelmed with my university application, and the amount of paperwork

Hi there! I’m Maëlle, a 22-year-old volunteer and this is my report of how things have been going so far!If there’s one thing I’ve learned during my six months (already!) in Germany, it’s that Deutsche Bahn and punctuality are two very, very opposite words. As an example, I could say that the train I was
