Almost one month I didn’t update my blog. Sorry, but I was to busy and lazy to do that. But I have a new information with which I can share. So I will start with last year. The Christmas holiday I spent with my lovely host family. We went to place near to Brussels. I’m sorry but I don’t remember name of that place. Anyway it is not so important. There I was introduced with Belgium Christmas traditions and I need to say in Latvia we celebrate the same way. Too much eating, eating, eating… But it was nice to celebrate Christmas and New year without my family for first time.
January I started new language module - next level. Now I am very smart in Dutch but I understand more than I can speak. It is not so easy. Together with my host family I visited “90th European Motor Show Brussels”. Oh, that was unimaginable- new, shiny cars, motorcycles, scooter etc. Of course also price of the cars was like a telephone number :) There were lot of very rich and business people. For sure, cause cars were expensive. Very expensive. But there were also cheaper cars. As you can imagine my favorite car was one that I can only dream about. I have to work more than just one life to afford car like that.
The end of January I had Mid Term Training in De Waterman in Brussels for EVS volunteers. I met again 32 volunteers from all Europe and other places. It was very useful to hear experiences of other volunteers. After that i understood that myproject is really good. We spent together 3 funny days. But I was only one which project finish so fast, the other EVS have almost one year projects. The time goes very fast - sometimes to fast :(
Also back way was full of adventures. In Belgium they put together 2 trains and in one place day separated and went every train to different destination. Of course I sat in wrong part. But I was lucky that I understood that and in the right station I switch the train’s :)

My project will finish after 1 month – still do not believe that. But I made a list of my EVS activities and I realized that I was really busy all this 5 months but sometimes I was lazy. I could do more but I did my best. Now I have a month to write final report and to make a summary. Of course I will lead some workshops in Loca Loca and do necessaries activities. I hope that I will have a time to reflect that in my blog.
Outside is little bit could ( -10 in night) and all people freezing but I came from Latvia so for me it is normal winter. So interesting to see that. :) This week it was first snow here uhuuu, now I fill like a home. I need in winter snow, only in that way it is a real winter. Otherwise it is very, very long and boring autumn :)
