What volunteers got from this project:
Volunteer from Romania Aida, after this project‘s evaluation, wrote:
“I still can speak Lithuanian language and I like very much. I had a very nice teacher with an amazing way of teaching. Now, I am more opened to the people, more open-minded and happy because I did what I wanted. EVS is regarded as a good thing and it already helped me in finding a job.
It gives you a great opportunity to meet other people and different cultures and this is such a nice thing. It’s great to be in the middle of a community for few moths, not days as a traveler or a tourist…”

“I have learned too much during these 6 months and that was the most important experiment in all my life, aim now more confident in my life and full of experiences.
I’m very interested in such programs and projects and after that project I will change my career from accountancy to the social society…“
