Rares about volunteering

I’ve been involved in several volunteering activities so far and I discovered that I like best those when I have something to learn from the elderly. My grandparents do not live here so, I’ve always felt a bit “poorer” as compared to most of my colleagues who have had the privilege to grow up in the proximity of their granddads and grand mums. That’s the reason why I chose to involve in the activity organized with the seniors in “Rivulus Pueris” Centre on 25^th of February 2015.

The topic of discussions was spring traditions both in our country and county. We took it very seriously and each of us looked for information in different sources: books, magazines and – particularly – the internet. We wanted to impress the seniors with our knowledge. And we did.  However, their information was more detailed and I understood that when you learn about matters is one thing, but when you experience them is something different, which you do not forget easily.
