Well, it’s going to be long. Long but not enough to express everything that I would like to say.
I will start from the very beginning. A girl from Armenia fell in love with Italy. How? Why? I don’t know. But it is the fact. And I was trying to find an EVS project in Italy and thus combine those two experiences: to be in Italy as it was my distant love and doing EVS as an “unforgettable experiance” as they say. After 2 years of trials, after around 100 applications, long months of waiting for responses, I managed to do it thanks to FIOH. People were telling me,”Choose a nice project, it shouldn’t necessarily be in Italy”. But I knew that sooner or later I will find my opportunity especially in Italy, because I wanted it too much. And here I am. SUPERhappy, SUPERexcited and SUPERenthusiastic. My project was in Projects and Resources office of the Municipality of Cremona. Thanks to my colleagues my integration was so easy, I didn’t have big problems, difficulties, also because the knowledge of the language helped me.
Of course, in the beginning it was tough, I was trying to figure out how the things work in Italy, I was lost in the labrinth of languages, I was confused in many things. But once I understood how is everything done, my EVS became a wonderful journey, full of amazing people, nice places, unforgettable moments, gained skills, new friends and contacts.
So many things I want to say, but so few words I manage to find.
It’s true that every good thing comes to its end, but it’s also true that every end is a beginning of something new!
I am positive and ready to accept new challenges but I have to accept now, that I am really sad. I went out from my comfort zone 1 year ago, and I found another comfort zone. I left my home in Armenia to go to Italy. And then I had to leave my home in Italy, because YES, it became my home. I will miss my second home – this wonderful small town of Cremona, which is splendid.
Once back in Armenia, I will try to apply the knowledge and the inspiration I’ve got during my EVS project, thus making a change and trying to make our world a little bit better place.
I want to thank all the people who made this experience this amazing, who gave me support, love, friendship, inspiration and motivation.
