This week was full of new experiences and great moments! 🌿✨

We visited a miniature park in the Opole region, where we had lots of fun and even got to feed the bunnies. 🐰 We also went on a bike trip to a beautiful lake and enjoyed some time outdoors. 🚲🌊

We organized a big workshop where we shared ideas, learned from each other and had a great time together. We also held an evaluation session to reflect on our experiences and everything we have achieved so far. 💬

And, of course, we had the chance to discover many beautiful paintings and enjoy some art along the way. 🎨

Another week full of learning, creativity, teamwork and unforgettable memories! 💚

☀️ A busy week full of creativity, dancing and new experiences! 🇵🇱✨

Despite the summer heat, we had an incredibly active and eventful week! 💪☀️

🧦 We got creative during our handmade workshop, turning ordinary socks into cute and funny figures. It was a simple idea, but we had so much fun creating our own little characters! 🎨🧸

💃 We also spent time preparing Turkish dances. We later had the opportunity to share our dancing with older people during a special dance workshop, bringing movement, music and lots of smiles together.

🎶 Another highlight of the week was a big concert for both children and older people. It was wonderful to see different generations coming together, enjoying music, performances and each other’s company. 🎤✨

🚴 We also went to see the start of the Tour de Pologne in Opole and experienced the exciting atmosphere surrounding one of Poland’s biggest cycling events! 🇵🇱

From handmade workshops and dancing to concerts, community activities and cultural experiences, this week was full of different moments and new memories.

And even with the heat, we managed to do it all! ☀️💪

See you next week! 💛

Our volunteer Caterina🤍🇮🇹

🎭 Her interests: Caterina graduated from a Humanities High School with a theatre focus. This experience inspired her passion for creative activities, working with children, art and theatre. She enjoys finding new ways to express creativity and believes that art is a wonderful way to connect with people.

🎬 Her role in the project: Caterina volunteers in two different places. She works at a local cinema, where she helps with daily tasks and enjoys planning creative activities. She often gets inspiration from art students who are doing their internships at the cinema and loves adapting those ideas for the recreational center, where she works with children and teenagers aged 6 to 15 through games, workshops and creative activities.

💙 How she feels about the journey: “I’m really enjoying my time in Opole. It’s a small, peaceful, and welcoming city where I feel safe and comfortable. One of the best parts of this experience has been meeting amazing people. My housemates are also volunteers in the same project, and we’ve shared so many unforgettable moments together. I’m truly grateful for the friendships I’ve made and for everything this experience is teaching me.”
