Last week I went to Warsaw to take part in my On Arrival training. We were 14 international volunteers all across Poland, all staying in the hotel.<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n

Arriving to the capital!<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

I arrived in the city on Monday and while I was having lunch I started to meet some of the volunteers. The official presentations were soon after that. We got to talk a bit about ourselves and also about our different projects and cities. To break the ice and conclude the day, we made a Teams Challenge Race, where we got to join our knowledge and creativity to complete the different challenges.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Learning polish & discovering the Warsaw<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

On Tuesday we had our first morning class, we practiced some basic polish vocabulary and played some team building games. The morning was over and we had lunch (the food at the hotel was very nice, especially the desserts and the coffee break cakes!). After lunch we discussed some topics we would like to learn about Polish culture and divided into teams. The following day we would be venturing into the city and interviewing people so we needed to prepare what questions we would be asking. After dinner (at 18:00\u2026) we decided to visit the city, we only had a few hours, so we decided to go to the old town.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
