20th Jan 2014


Already a week in Poland Leszno ,

Back home I did some research about the city all I could see through google was the main City Hall and how cold it will be, no where they was talking about how warm the people will be, how greats the group of volunteers international and Polish will be and adding to that the weather is not that cold as expected.


Still, am a bit confused about how some facts. I don’t think that “Demon” as an example feed to Leszno (small, warm with beautiful architecture city).


Till now everyone was helping, sometimes I didn’t even have to ask, amazing to see how easy going the polish are, people just invite us to join them to bars, restaurants and even homes.

CAT Birthday

BTW, writing about birthday... It's happening a lot of things in the same time here, in this town. Don't think that just because it's a small town, nothing is happening. If you were thinking it, you are so wrong... Reset your mind!
It's happening so many things that we have not even time to share all with you.

Centrum Aktywności Twórczej counted it's 5 years old last Friday and all the volunteers are very proud to belong to this group and for can share this kind of moments with the CAT. As Adam said "now you can go to the kindergarden" and we will watch you growing up, every day with new ideas to find the best way to create even more activity in Leszno.

Happy Birthday to 5th CAT birthday, as well. Just to remember the last 5 years, here the movie from the volunteers. And to remember last Friday, Krystian photos bellow.

Swim on the lake

Today was a freeze day. Everyone was thinking about go to the frozen lake to swim. We didn't know if we were to survive of it... We can deal with a lot of things, but this? Hmmmm....
Now we know that we have a very strong group here... We work, we party, we swam, we can do everything. Not everyone swam, actually, but the big amount who was, tried it. Farah was the most strong woman. I can remeber the suffering in her face while she said: "It is nice". We enjoyed the day... Enjoy you, now, the photos.

Short Term January March 2014


Hello everyone online,

We are the group in Leszno who is going to entertain the town. To start, everyone is going to be presented. So, we are going to represent each other. Just check and you are always invited to visit us here, on the blog, or during our activities.

Welcome!




What can I said about my dear friend Taief... He is this kind of quiet people that have a lot to say. He don’t waist the time in say stupid things, so when he say something, for sure it’s gonna be something interesting. I really love his calm and the way that he has for live the life.
We have the same passion, the photography, and for sure we are going to have good projects about this together. You will see in this blog ;)
Jose Hita


It is not easy to talk about of a cool girl who came from Spain… it is not easy because that would make her an ordinary girl ... and she has nothing ordinary. Her name is Julia. How to define it? And our friendship? A strange connection is what i can say ... maybe our cultural aspects have brought us closer. Julia is a directly person, outspoken but at the same time kind and above all, she is genuine.. "she is what she is" and not what people want it to be!
Fernando Domingues

WANTED! Her name is Nino. You can identify her because she is always singing with a wonderful voice. Don't be tempted to ask her to play the guitar, you won’t want her to stop EVER. And above all, do not even think about trying any of the soups she can cook, the rest of the soups won’t taste good anymore!
Julia Rodríguez

I’m Amr from Egypt. I’m most punctual and targeted person who knows how to achieve the goal or how can be at time in the destination place .In the morning my main task is to wake up earlier and repeat the sentence (go guys wake up we have only 20 minutes for everything) we will be at the time more or less but we must to wait girls, we know why we’re going to the office, why we are in hurry, because Adam or Magda are waiting us, If are not both of them there will be Olga for sure.
I am small Zinedin Zidan. I like football very much and have liked it more when I was playing in the snow. It was exciting. I’m playing football in my country twice a week or more . I like eating, but not more than Nika. I am only 28 years old and all the life in front of me and waiting new challenges.
So I’m so happy that I’m participating in this project. I am thinking about the new ideas and how to realize it.

Warm Regards from Amr
Nika Chiqovani


Gigia her name is Gigia STOP calling her Maria, our Italian volunteer, full of energy, sometimes she’s on the clouds, but when she is here; you can see it, hear it and feel it.
NO MORE prejudice about Italian hand speaking and gestural: even if she do but want admit it, on the names of everybody I can say WE MISS YOU and am already sorry for the weit you have to carry for me J.
Argoubi Taief


Tarara rara rara ra ra... Tararara ra rarara... I am the dancer girl, who is always shaking my body and applauding. I am always smiling as well. So, I love music. I love to be in love. I love go out and met new people and dance till to be a new day. Nice to meet you: I am from Turkey and I really want to share it with you. By the way, my name is Burce, nice to meet you.
Mara Rodrigues


Hello Leszno,

I’m Mara Rodrigues from Portugal, I’ll be here for 2 months and we’re gonna have lots of fun, wake up people get up and jog move your body kick some ass. Let’s go to party drink juice (you know what I mean). I love animals so much, I miss my dogs ! Bring me my dogs… I have the best cappuccino ever, thanks to our flat mate volunteers it’s running out. Girls! stop steeling my cappuccino ! I am just kidding…

I’m eager to see Poland, travel a lot and get to know Polish people.

Mara was the last but not the least, she got the beat she is the beast.
Nino Maghlakelidze



Hello Everyone,

Being here for the past two weeks has been lots of fun, I really love the food; especially polish bananas. In case you’re wondering who I am. I’m Nika from Georgia, I’m 21 years old and I really love to EAT! Drink and sleep too of course. You can see me making a fool out of myself sometimes but I do it to entertain the demanding crowds. I’m light hearted and I enjoy drawing a smile on people’s faces. But hey! I’m full of surprises; get to know me better and you’ll see for yourself ;)
Farah Hijazi


Fernandinho, oops I mean Fernando… Portugal is my home and Portuguese food & wine are my love. I love taking photos and working on them by Photoshop to reach perfection. Or on other occasions just to joke around ;). I’m a very sweet guy. I joke all the time and I like to scare people. My trick is to stare deep in their eyes and start freaking them out with my “smoothest and cheesiest” lines ever. But really I am just kidding. “or maybe I am not, mmmmm” ;)
Amr Arafa



Hita is a good Spanish cooker. One of the most things i like hım, I like his piercings. He is helpfull, good-looking, gentleman. At the moment I don't know a lot of things about him because we didn't spent too much time together but we still have 2 months to get known each other.
Burçe Ulubilgin



Farah is from Jordanand and she is an incredible artist and kickass fighter. Fun, strong, creative, she's full of resources and she'll never cease to amaze you. She may be small , but I would strongly advice you not get on her way and not to underestimate the power her kicks. 
She paints, she writes, she plays guitar, she sings (kind of) and she can even control her dreams, not to mention how beautiful she is.

One shortcoming? DO NOT TRUST HER COOKING!
