Excellent Work/A New Addition

Hey gang,

Two quick things:
  1. Excellent work getting all your forms in. You make my job a lot easier. I take back the slacker accusation.
  2. Unfortunately, Stephanie is unable to join our team this summer. We are sad to see her go. Fortunately, however, we have an awesome new addition, Jeehyun Choi. In the next week or so, she and Kinga Popa, our Romania country coordinator, will be posting introductions of the other on the blog. Stay tuned.

Travel plans??

Hi all!

Just wondering what people's ideas/hopes were of different countries, places they'd like to visit?

With you all travelling such long distances I am guessing many of you would be wanting to see more of Europe after the programme??

So which places would you like to visit?

Also if anyone who's been through europe any recommendations of places to go?

Recommendations from my own experiences i'd have to say that Prague is an awesome place to visit as is Amsterdam. Although my travels through mainland europe have been quite limited ending up going to the usual holiday spots e.g. Greek and spanish islands.

Places id really like to visit at somepoint would include Italy and other general regions of mainland Europe. Ive also heard that an up and coming place to visit is Krakow in Poland how true this is i dont know.

To the say the truth ive never really thought too much about travelling throughout europe as previously ive always looked further a field. So thats why im interested in hearing what other peoples ideas are??? ..... as i wouldnt want to miss out on this opportunity to see more of Europe!


Thanks

Christian

3 Quick Things

  1. Thank you all for being so on the ball with the intros. They were fun to read.
  2. Keep working on Volunteer Packet 2. We need those forms by April 15th. You should be emailing me three things
    1. Travel, Medical, Emergency form
    2. Personal Info form
    3. Photocopy of your passport
  3. Everyone's watching our blog with bated breath to see how long it takes for us to burn out. Lets spite them and keep this going. What this requires, though, is for you all to go to town with this forum. As authors of this website, you have the ability not only to make post but also to change the layout of the blog. We can put up slide shows, links, polls. Lets make this happen and quash the squeals of the naysayers.
