Go to sleep
Your brain will not. While you are sleeping, your brain is cleaning, refueling and repairing itself. People sleep about a third of their lifetime, so when you reach the age of 75 you have slept 25 years. It sounds absurd, but at least you will not beat Sleeping Beauty’s record of 100 years of sleep.…

Head in the clouds
I read some old texts of mine, and discovered a text from over two years ago, when I was in my first Erasmus+ training course in Struga, Macedonia. I wrote how I will someday go and do my EVS somewhere; I wanted to be a volunteer. That time, I had no idea that two years…

Ден на Жената од ВЦС
Честит Ден на Жената од Волонтерски Центар Скопје. Женскиот дел од нашата канцеларија беше пријатно изненаден со цвеќиња и торта за одбележување на денот (бидејќи ние во ВЦС многу сакаме да празнуваме и јадеме слатки). Хармонијата и цвеќињата сепак не би требало да го сокријат фактот дека жените низ светот сеуште мораат да се борат…

The harmony and flowers should however not obscure that all around the globe women still have to fight for their rights and…

It was about possibilities…
