Lisa's presentation

Hey, my name is Lisa and I am an artist. My main interests surround contemporary art and it is my long term ambition to become recognised for my paintings! I have a small family and a few really good friends who I can rely on, these are really important to me!
I thought I could start this blog by compiling a list of the things that fascinate me day to day; the human brain and body language, people watching, nature documentaries, food, artists, colour, the outdoors, vintage clothing, anything ‘retro’, grannies, materials and hand made things!
As a creative person my interests lie within visiting galleries, markets, photography exhibitions and travelling. One of my dreams is to travel around the rest of Europe, New Zealand and china. Other things I like to do; I love to spend time listening to the radio, classical concerts and going to gigs! As far as music goes I’m pretty open minded… although Chris Martin (Coldplay) is a genius!
Things I can’t do but wish I could do; enjoy roller coasters, successfully go bowling, sing!
As far as dislikes goes it would have to be extreme sports, I’m not exactly ‘sporty,’

But really to end on a positive note I’ll try most things once!
Finally …I can’t wait to meet everyone and start the project! :)

Tatiana's presentation

Ciao a tutti!

Mi chiamo Tatiana, I’m from Russia and I’m completely because of this opportunity to take part in this EVS project! I’m a member of voluntary organization in Russia already for 3 years. During this time we did a lot of interesting things – projects, festivals, etc. I’m mad about this idea of voluntary service and of this opportunity to express oneself through voluntary work, to find ones place in this world.

About myself: In fact I have only few desires in my life.

First one is traveling – traveling through different countries with different people, traveling with or without somebody, to or from something. Discovering new customs, traditions or just walking along the streets with no aim. I don’t like traditional excursions only as exception; I prefer to discover country from inside, through people.

The second one is literature – I’m reading books on Russian, English, Italian and Ukrainian language, I’m collecting them, I like the process of reading, but I’m reading only that books which I really like (not just for quantity). I’m also writing articles to the local journal and dreaming with my friends about our own one called “Out of genre” where we could write about our experience and meetings with interesting places and wonderful people.

The third one is cinema – not so long ago I started to collect films. With my friends we organized videoclub, hope that someday I become real professional in the cinema-question)) And now I just have a small camera and make short movies about my friends and our adventures. What else… I danced for 8 years in the school so I could be a dance teacher)) why not?) Or organize an art-classes, I was always good in hand-made)) Anyway I hope all my opportunities and skills (even that one which I still don’t know about) would help to make our project the best way!

Hope to see all of you as soon as possible!
Un baccio and abbraccio a tutti!
