Active EVS: Central station for EVS in Active
http://activeevs.blogspot.com/2010/06/central-station-for-evs-in-active.html
Thursday, 17 June 2010. Central station for EVS in Active. Since I was actively encouraged to blog about EVS, I will give it a try. I was an EVS volunteer myself in 2004/2005 so I guess I know how it feels to volunteer in Active office. Since then - I have experienced 19 volunteers in Active office and we are going to welcome 3 more from September 2010. How does it look like to be mentor for the volunteers?

Active EVS: Örebro in summer
http://activeevs.blogspot.com/2010/07/orebro-in-summer.html
Wednesday, 7 July 2010. As the office is on holidays for this week, the weather is very warm and fine in Örebro, so meanwhile you can watch some "tourist pictures" - how our hometown. Looked like in one evening :). LOT of bicycles everywhere, we also have our work-ones. Kind of central square, growded by people daytime. Tourists, and the castle - it's kind of the main symbol of Örebro, used on postcards, T-shirts etc. Nice small waterfalls, my personal favorites :). 12 July 2010 at 21:29. The European Vo...

Active EVS: Meanwhile, in the camp
http://activeevs.blogspot.com/2010/08/meanwhile-in-camp.html
Wednesday, 18 August 2010. Meanwhile, in the camp. Meanwhile, before packing the office for moving to Stockholm, we had the Active summercamp in Fredrikstad, Norway. As everyone was there, I'm not going to write a long introduction, but describing what the volunteers did (and what I liked doing):. Hope I'm wrong :). On the downside, by the end of the camp, I have an impression that other people's work is not always valued. Seem as small things, cultural difference maybe, but for me these are examples of ...

Active EVS: May 2010
http://activeevs.blogspot.com/2010_05_01_archive.html
Monday, 31 May 2010. Getting sunburned in Iceland. I left my Örebro home on the 14th of May, having a great work task: to go to. For 2 weeks. I was perfectly aware of that there are 3-hour direct flights from. In comfortable huge planes (the ones with the personal movie screen:) , but this was not my way. After discovering that there's going a ferry to. It seemed to be quite crazy thing to do, so I did it. Most of the conversations on this topic were like this:. Me: "I am going to. Me: "3 days.". Being s...

Active EVS: June 2010
http://activeevs.blogspot.com/2010_06_01_archive.html
Tuesday, 29 June 2010. The last "Swedish course". After 15 years of non-stop school times I could not even imagine that I would enjoy studying. That's why I made a break. So, when I came to Sweden, I could not imagine that one of my favorite things here (next to the football trainings of course) could be sitting in the class and learning Swedish. The more suprising is that I have actually learnt some. Thursday, 17 June 2010. Central station for EVS in Active. I learn every year. From some I learn to ...
