Capacity Building training
From 13 to 15 of October we were provided with concrete project related tasks and responsibilities, information, skills and aptitudes that would be tailored on the target group and we would be working with.
We had the Capacity Building training in Port Cultural Cetate (http://portcetate.ro/?lang=en), in Romania. It was such a nice trip, not just because of the natural landscape, also because of the food and the useful information we received.
We stayed in this cozy house and we received the formation inside. We talked about non-formal education and we received some advice from people of the association, much more experienced than us. Also, other volunteers from Craiova were with us, and they told us their experience doing volunteering. How they organized the activities, how they dealt with the frustration when things were not going well, how they tried to improve day by day, the satisfaction they received when they achieved the goals, etc.

We also met each other much better, because we took time to express our feelings, emotions, things we wanted to personally improved, our faults and our virtues, in conclusion. We learnt also our rights and duties as a volunteer, and we shared things we were able to give to the others to make this experience better.
Of course, we had time enough to relax ourselves and enjoy the beautiful landscape. We ate typical food of Romania, reflected on our life in front of the Danube river and spent really good moments together.
Some day we will be coming back and this dog will be receiving us with the same love of the day we arrived.
