My volunteering experiences in Slovenia #2
Hello dear my Steemian friends,
Before you start to read my post, I would higly reccoment you to read my previous post about my volunteerin in Slovenia. My volunteering experiences in Slovenia. Today, I am gonna continue to write about my volunteering in Slovenia. I was long term volunteer. I stayed in Slovenia for one year. So, I have many great memories to share with you.
Country Presentation
I am gonna start to talk about country presentation that I made. My colleague introduced Bosnia and herzegovina and I introduced Turkey. I noticed that the people who attend to my presentation were really interested in Turkey. They were asking questions and listening me carefully. I asked them a question that who was the founder of Republic of Turkey? A woman replied that question " Sultan". But the answer was not correct and It's funny because Sultan is a noble title with several historical meanings. It is often used by Islamic rulers who proclaim their independence. So, founder of Republic of Turkey is Atatürk.
Taking pictures for festival
My project was full of activities. This time I worked for some festival in Ljubljana where capital of Slovenia. My duty was take pictures in the festival. Those pictures are below taken by me. Photography is one of my greatest passion in my life. I was really glad to work as a photographer in that festival.
Food Workshop
I had many food workshop in different places in Slovenia. This one that I made was in Murska Sobota where Eastern part of Slovenia. I had such a great time when I was making of traditional food for them. They were so nice and kind people. I made for them Açma( traditional soft pastry), sütlaç(Traditional rice pudding). They liked so much.
What does volunteering mean to me ?
I had some obstacles while volunteering because some people don't value volunteer work. Some people consider volunteering as waste of time. They can't conceive the fact that someone can work without a salary. I was getting paid but It was for very less money. I think there are things more valuable than money in life. One year experience that I had in Slovenia was absolutely priceless for me. I felt really great when I was helping the people who needed. Volunteering gave me a sense of empowerment and joy in creating change. I am hoping to inspire some people to be volunteer as well. Because volunteering offers you unforgettable and life changing experience.
