Dzien dobry! Those are the first words I said every morning to<br />
the amazing people I had the chance to meet during my Global<br />
Volunteer experience in Poland. I had just finished high school and<br />
I made the decision not to have the same routine summer vacation<br />
as before. I found out about this experience <strong>AIESEC</strong> offered<br />
and after the Interview there I was in a country I had never been<br />
before, and not one word from their language that I knew. From the<br />
first moment I set foot in the city of Krakow, I had people from<br />
<strong>AIESEC</strong> supporting and helping me. I was scared about my job,<br />
teaching English to kindergarten kids whose language I didn't<br />
understand, but from the moment I first met the teachers and the<br />
kids I knew it would be incredible. They became my everyday<br />
family and “Happiness” is the only word I can find to describe my<br />
experience with them.<br />
Looking back to the most incredible experience of my life I understand<br />
how much I’ve grown inside, how I can affect everyone around me and<br />
how much more valuable life seems.<br />
To whomever is reading this I sincerely hope I have managed to show<br />
you what you didn't even know you were missing.
