Arts Lab 3.0 - Kubra Akarsu - We're famous now!

Our visibility in Târgu Frumos increased a lot in March. We're so famous now! :)) We facilitated workshops about volunteering for over 180 students from three schools in Târgu Frumos. We shared our experience in Asirys and talked about the importance of non-formal education. In my workshop, I engaged youth to speak about the volunteering values, and I believe this activity was really beneficial.

We also tried to clean the Cucuteni garden by going to the village of Băiceni during this month. Even though there were few moments in my life when the earth touched my hands, I cut trees and fought with grass. Although this is not a pleasant job, I realized that sometimes it is more important with whom you do what you do than what you do. Thank you again to everyone who helped us, for making it more enjoyable.

At the end of March, we had the opportunity to meet different organisations with an event prepared by our local volunteers. On the same day, we had the night of France and we had a pleasant dinner.

We also had to say goodbye to our French friend Gui, who left a lot of good memories for me even if he only came for a month. We spent great time together and we got really beautiful memories. But now a life without the croquet monsieur awaits us.
