Alumni N etwork Juan Rivera – From Colombia to Belgrade In summer 2009 I started a great adventure in the fantastic city of Belgrade. Without knowing how would that be, I packed my bags and arrived in Belgrade the 9th of June 2009. Unknowingly, I was the second person that arrived among 80 students from all around the world and destiny had planned me to be the last one to leave. After three unbelievable months of summer, some of them started to return to their countries and therefore a ritual began and we all started to write a goodbye card to each one of us. February 2010, most of us have already left and I signed each one of the goodbye cards to each one of the fantastic people I met there but always with the sadness that for me there won’t be a goodbye card because I knew I was going to be the last one to leave. And so, secretly, a big goodbye card was created; and there was a route planned; it started in the Middle East countries and the card was planned to move almost all around the world, Europe, Asia, North America, Mexico and finally South America to have as final destination Ibague, Colombia. The card, started from Jordan on the 10th of December 2009 moving forward to Syria, Spain, Italy, Greece, Romania, Poland, Switzerland, Germany, Ireland and then it travelled overseas to Canada; in October 2010 it arrived to the United States and Mexico after that. Then in Mexico the card was lost, I suppose it went partying somewhere in Tijuana as I would normally do. After months of being lost I was told about the card and the idea that there were some photos taken just in case the card got lost in traffic. I felt special having such nice friends all around the world and thankful for such a nice idea. Some day in September 2012 the Card stop partying in Tijuana and decided to continue the route and arrived in Brazil, Argentina and Brazil once more. Since my plans changed quite a bit after such an amazing IAESTE experience, the card didn’t move to Colombia but finally and thankfully arrived in Hamburg early in 2013. Postages from all around the world were cut and pasted again in the card, melancholy, laughs and hangovers were coming out of it without even having read what all of the people had written on it. It is such an honour to have met you all and to be able to say I have some many wonderful friends all around the world. IAESTE, Serbia, and all of these fantastic people are the proof that life is even more precious if you’re surrounded by nice, unconditional friends. Those memories can never be taken away from me and that is the most valuable treasure that I’ll take to the grave. Thank you all for that. Abrazos! The world loves us and supports us!!!! Juan 14 14
