Volunteering for a Smile

Hey, it's me again!! Today I will talk about the EVS project and how my first week in Reşiţa was. I went to a place named Primavara which is like a center for children with disabilities. I thought I would'nt like it because I never "worked" with children with special needs but it was pretty amazing. First of all, the view was amazing, we could see the mountains and it was so cool! So we went there and played some games with the kids. I really enjoyed it, it was incredible how they treated me even if it was my first time there.

I thought "ok lets go to the supermarket and buy what i need, i don't need to know the language, I see the images and understand what im buying", but no! I tought I was buying milk and when I got home and opened it..... i mean, it was like not milk to drink i guess. It was not liquid, really strange yeah.
