After a long camping marathon, it was time to rest. Enjoyed the holiday with my family. Mother Sirje works in a kindergarten in the city of Valga. I accompanied her for 2 working days. All day, I was a partner in the activity times of the children in several classes accompanied by the teachers 💫 💫
The first thing that caught my attention was the difference between Estonian and Russian children. Estonian children were more calm and shy, while Russian children were sociable and used their body language actively. So, it was interesting that the difference between the two societies differed so sharply from childhood 💭💭
July started as action packed as the last month. The only thing that was different this time, was the constant though in my head, that this will be my last days in Estonia. But instead of grieving this loss, I just focused on putting a great end to this journey. And I delivered…
I won't lie, at first the thought slipped through my mind that July was not particularly productive, but it was exactly until the moment when I sat down to remember all the events. Somehow there were a lot of them, so without extra words, we begin.
Camps
As I mentioned in the last blog, there were two more camps waiting for me, but for some circumstances it was only one - Specter. It was quite the active 3 day period, during which my task was to conduct games in which water should take place(it sounds strange, but it's true), however, everything went well, except for the weather - there were huge thunderstorms for 2 days, and as a result, the tents of some children were broken, everything got wet, and the equipment took a complete shower. But thanks God, everything is fine and ended well. Now shortly about why my Malev was canceled, two words - Night Fair, which you will learn more about)
…even if there would have been a few situations, action, stress and fun always distracted me xD. This month I spent on two camps, got some visitors from afar and used my covid pass to cross a few boarders. As you can see, my bed missed me also in July xD
But let’s start with the 1st of July: On this day, Madli and Elina picked Xaver and me up for a little surprise- Our “farewell”-trip. Yep, soon it’s time to go, but thankfully not in July (at least for me). So our Tutors organized a nice day for us: First we went to a climbing park in Otepää, then got some delicious food and ended with spotting Estonian animals in a rescue center. Probably one climbing parkour was the first time I nearly shed a tear (of fear), but thankfully, a woman before me did that job (she had a panic attack I guess) and so I pulled myself together. As I said, no time to cry in July lol.
