Federico - EVS volunteer from Mantova, participating in a project in France
The main parts of the project include: a preparation of a tartana (an old typical vessel from Marsel) and the navigation to Barcelona. During our trip to Spain we will make stops in different places for brief excursions and various activities (for example cleaning the beach and the illustration of the project for the boats' visitors).
This project will allow me to discover the traditional navigation under sail and to consider the different points of view in the Mediterranean environment. More importantly there will be an intercultural exchange with guys from different countries (France, England and Poland).
Now I'm in Sete - a wonderful place! Each moment is getting closer to when i will leave for Barcelona. Everything is ok... and to communicate we use italofrenchenglish - impossible to translate but understandable! The project is going well, I'm studying how to surf under the sail and I could say that I really like it.... "Hello from the sailor Federico see you soon".
Hi to everybody in Italy+ kiss, Federico.
