SPAIN - PART 2


So now I can start to talk about my camp a little – without boring you :)

First when I get there, I was just shocked. Like “What a hell place I got voluntereed”

But I saw green areas and aftter green, the empty construction yard and than I started to think. Ok whats the mission?

Green land, fields, horses,a pool with plants ( great part of it ), compos WC, a shower room outside of the ruined building, destroyed bar and elses. You will see :)

They started to tell us our mission for this camp and I understand that I read the info wrong. But It wasnt my fault, ıt was info. It writes, we are going to do some plant work :( But We didnt any of it.

Only job is construction cement...Can you believe it? I worked in a field with stones! Not bugs...

And my other dream was about Im gonna meat with new people from every culture. But we were only 4, 1 organisator and some old members. That was big heart and dream breaker for me.

Other thing was, the toilet at outside without lights and with spiders. We had to go WC before 9.30pm because when it gets dark, you cant see anything! No lights! What a civilization! So you must hold your pee till 7am. But I like the idea for shower room. It has “hot” water! Yey! You must close the curtains for avoiding to be seen and kill the all bugs inside before going inside. But the man told me ( who eat a garlic without chew) that you shouldnt kill spiders, they catch bugs, than you can bath freely. It was true. I get used with it after 5 days lol. Also spiders inside the toilet too...

And the food thing.

We have noting to eat after second day for breakfast. First day they let us to everything in fridge. But other days...Just bread and oil and the cheese I bought my own. I didnt want to spend much money for it but I know that my body going crazy to eat nothing for 10 days at breakfast. We were working hard and damn veg camp, no meat...D’oh !

For lunches, everybody has a day to cook, especially soup and some veg and a salad. I was really crazy with food. That was a really survivor competition for me.

So I can talk about the job a little.

They wanted from us to help to build a bakery base for them. Their building is ruined ( like the town in the games). So we started to mow the earth for the pick up the stones and after pour the cement etc. Only job we do in week. Damn hardly tired job. And we only drink lemon water ( not lemonade) for power, and as I told before no meat at all. Maybe some day eggs. Uh I cant pass without saying, I ate duck egg, yummy !

I want to tell the other fun parts at my other writing...So wait a l

ittle , get excited :)

Spain - part 1

Long Time No show up si?

Yes I have been in spain for veinte y tres dias :=)

And Now I have a new job so don’t have much time to write.

First days, I was struggling about to choose my working camp which is about volunteer camp for people all over the world. The actual aim is for cultural, talk and get know eachothers’ culture. Second is work free and stay free. Ofcourse we are working and it is usefull for the owner of the camp! :=)

Third- which is the best part of my trip- is see all around the Barcelona city. :)

Here comes the little story of my first alone out of country trip experiment.

First day when I got on the plane, two spanish women sat had sat to my near. I was lucky that I have them to talk and learn some tricks about valls and barcelona. She told me this some vine brands and some special dish names which are I haven’t searched yet. And even more lucky at the first second they left me to the train station and helped me for to go my camp – valls.

After those much lucky minutes I got the train. And have learnt that I need to stop in a station and take another train again. And that was the place which is my luggage’s holder rotten apart by a man. He was helping to me get out of train becausa the damn doors were closing so fastly and I stucked in the train with my luggage, a mother who was blocking the door and her baby! And the man threw my luggage outside..Lol. That was incredible. I thanked to him and after shocked with the stairs to outside of station with the shreded holder..

Dont worry I was alive with my starve. At Station's there are no other things except the “jamon” meat...Than I just bought a icey jucie and a little bocadillo. Thats the name of simple sandwich – special for spain. Started to wait the train...And the stairs again.

When I arrived to Valls I tried to call SCI and the man stupitly tried to give the phone to another person for “english” talk and I was yelling like “C’mon man, Im calling from damn cell phone!” They told me that They gonna take me at 7pm and time was like 3pm. An old man from the train showed me a Pitzaerria Italiano, And I ate the best vegetarian pizza ever in my life in there. Situation was like tarzan because he didn’t know any english and I couldnt talk any spanish at the first day. So I just bought veg. And he made a special sale for me

Couple hours, I saw other 2 girls were sitting on the stairs near station and approached them and “Guys are you volunteered for the Can Pipirimosca?”

And that was How I started to adventure!

Meet with them, the organisator took us from there at 7pm, and with car, we were heading to echological field for our ‘dead’ lol
