Ready ... set ... go!

Hi,

it is pretty difficult for me to have free time and internet access at the same time eh eh but now it looks I have got 2 minutes to keep you up to date with the plans for the next 3 weeks!

Our training will end tomorrow and it has been really good.

The people at Seeds are amazing, they explained everything very clearly about the volunteer work and prepared several very good team activities like the city game!

The city game was a healthy "competition" between teams of 2. We had a set of questions about the places e were passing by. It was not a regular game where you have to find out when the church was built or take a picture of the city hall. It was prepared in a much interesting way. The route was given to us and while we were walking we had to find the answer to the questions. The questions were mostly related to shops and other places in the city but in a funny way like by using icelandic words or translating them literally to english. We had to talk a lot with the people and to enter all kinds of shops!

Yesterday we had a barbeque at the hostel together with other evs volunteers from another organization. We had very good icelandic lamb and other food.

Today it is our first volunteering work, 7 of us went to help the australian circus group Strange Fruit in the Reykjavik. Me and other 3 are going to help cleaning a house in the city.

Tomorrow it is our last da at the hostel, we will have a brunch with the mentors of our group. I still have some port wine, tremocos and olives eh eh

On monday we split into 2 groups. My group is going to Hofn to help the local community in some tasks. We stay from the 18th until de 1st of June.

Also on the 1st of June we will go to the on arrival training organized by the national agency. We stay until the 6th. After that I still dont know, we will be assigned to the projects and I will keep you up to date later.

Kisses,
