♦ Today we came to Paraskoveyevka village. We got acquainted with each other. I am very tired now but I like this place and people which came here.
♦ Elisabeth says that she feels lucky because she is in good company and she is not anymore afraid of communication problems and she does not care about the building state, it makes it much more friendly
♦ It’s the people that makes special one place and not the place in itself. There are a lot of things I want to do and know about a lot of things I’ll find lot of answer and I am looking forward for next days
♦ Today was a complicated, but VERY interesting and productive day.
♦ I think that I have a wonderful company. We have enough work and leisure time. We spend together all time but it wasn’t boring. We went to the salt lake. We were swimming, walking and told each other different stories. After dinner I told some words about Ukraine, Ukrainian symbols, Kyiv. I had a lot of new knowledge and impressions.
♦ Plus I have to mention the group – human rights traveler – they held a presentation and I think all of us enjoyed it – and maybe we learnt something new as well :) Pity that they were leaving already tomorrow
♦ It was a wonderful day! In the morning we saw off our guests, afterwards we had some great work renovating the kitchen. After lunch we went to the salt lake – it is amazing! Masha and me managed to put some clay on, it looks 100% great!
♦ Really don’t know what to write, what to say… I feel really good here, I am happy, working, and relaxing = the best combination now!! And we’re trying hard to do our best to help with renovating the school, I like that girls here are not lazy at all and I can feel that they know exactly why they came here!
♦ I like the place, the people, the evenings, the environment – it’s great and I am starting to feel more comfortable with the group, the work and other cultures.
