I am adapting

Somes days I have enough energy to do activities in Megálló, to learn de languages, to make homeworks of my university, to do things in the house...but somes days not...although it is normal. But in my case I can feel theses changes more strongly, more extremly... Why? It could be for tehe weather? :)
...I am adapting...

You have sometimes to decide things in your life that can change it, and I have this feeling lot's of times. Only I hope I don't mistakes!

We are going to do news activities in Megálló. I am very happy for this, but I can see that is dificult, because we need more coordination. I would like theses activities work, and it will be interesting, for us aswell for the asociation.

nice days and so on...

About these days in Portugal i will think primary about the car from my friend who hosted me, Rosalinda. Because we done our time almost always by driving through her country. At first i saw a lot about the coast, one time we drove from Lisboa to her city, just along the seaside. The sun always shining.
But personally for me, the last days have been very impressive. We drove through the mountain range of Central-Portugal. Specially the highest mountain of Continental Portugal, Serra da Estrela, was a relief for my soul.
I enjoyed this time, cause it was almost calm and different to the things i know and belong to. But also this travel showed me, that i want to continue explore oher sides of earth, but not just by travelling. By living.

365 days of volunteer service

When I look behind me, I'm thinking "Damn! Already 2 months and half ! Was really fast". Then I can say I enjoy to be here, for the good things and instead the bad parts.
Lot's of people are scared to think about one year in a foreigner country, far away from all what you know, family, friends... For me, it was the exciting part, to being in a situation where the things would be even more complicated... But by the way I need sometimes to talk a little with friends/family on internet, to keep in touch, knowing what's up, just to reload my own battery, to feel better when everything goes wrong.
There is an other thing wich can be disturbing : the language.
Cause yes, here, I can't speak french, just english, everyday during this whole year... and cause of this, people who are able to speak my native language in Hungary are like messiah now for me, :p
This is not the only problem with language, cause in add of this, I can't also understand people... They talk together, laugh together, and you don't know what they're damn talking about..not a so good feeling, but motivate me more to learn hungarian more fastly.

If you sad, just keep in mind...

that you never will be confrontated again with the same feelings wich is keeping you down. Its always different, always. Even if you are dealing with the same problem again. You can count on yourself, because you have been already going through this. For me it is a kind of motivation, to managing it. I have the trust, to do it better, and if then is something going wrong, then, at least i have to take out everything which is just good for myself.
just have to trust...

The week!

This week is being hard for me. I am missing a lot of things of Spain… and I am tired almost every day. About the Hungarian, I am finding very difficult to learn it, as with the English I am better, I have moments that I don’t want to speak it.

Now, in our house, we have problems too, but I hope when this week finish, every thing will be well…

The best thing is that I am doing new activities in Megálló, for example, theatre or reiki, I am liking it a lot. Also, we are doing pictures of Budapest, of Buda part, and we are going one day in the week to do it.

Playing football in the courtyard

It's a little project what we do together (EVS-Megallo searching for intresting courtyards), because i never saw these kind of quad's yet. But of course, we also do other kind of pictures, for example going around the streets and shooting everything what's coming in front of our lenses.
And the last weekend, i was playing the first time in a football competition for megallo. It was okay, we didn't went on the first place and i don't want to tell which position we got. For me the first priority was to play and get demand for myself. All in all, fine.
