After a wonderful 2 weeks of holiday, Monday 6th of January marks our return back to JACis as we resume our work after the Christmas period. And since the year 2014 brings a lot of changes to Latvia, we decided to get the boring tasks off the table in the first place and started out the new year dealing with our accounting and bills. Nothing can lift your spirits higher than dealing with boring administrative work full of numbers. At least others had a great time, making tiny little hats with Pilar =.)
Monday was not only our first day back at work, but also the first day we got to meet a new volunteer in Rezekne. Her name is Karina, she is from Poland and she will work at the Polish gymnasium. Nevertheless we threw her a little welcome party in JACis and immediately introduced to the new hit in JACis, card game Saboteur. Welcome to Rezekne, Karina!
Tuesday 7th of January is THE day for big part of Rezekne population. And when it comes to orthodox Christmas, there are never enough fireworks. That is why on Tuesday evening we went to see the fireworks prepared by the orthodox church after the Christmas ceremony in Rezekne Orthodox church. What a show!
Thursday was the bussiest day of this week. Firstly we visited the polish gymnasium in Rezekne to deliver a presentation on EVS and activities in JACis to the group of local 10. graders. This was our second visit of the school and I have to admit it went much better than last time. This Lyudmila was there with us as well so team JACis presented ourselves in full power.
On Thursday evening JACis go visitors. Three girls from Rezekne HEI came to present their project and ask JACis for help. Their project is a part of competition and at the end of it projects with most votes will get the funding.
