Prespa
Last weekend I went to Agios Germanos a small, beautiful village near the Prespa Lakes to visit some other volunteers who are working at the project "Cultural Triangle of Prespa". One of them was a dutch girl who comes funny enough from the same town were i'm from in Holland. We went hitchhiking to the Prespa Lakes (you can see on the pictures). I think it's the most beautiful place i've ever been. It was only a pity that their were a lot of musquito's and i'm now all over the musquito bites. We also visites the local Greek bar which was quite different from the bars in Holland. I had a great weekend in Prespa by swimming in the lake, go to the local bar and talk with the other volunteers about their EVS experiences and ofcours Greek man.
On Monday I went back to Florina and in the evening Renee and Maria from Prespa visited me and we went to eat gyros and had a drink in a bar. This week I go every morning to the Youth Center to talk with Ellisavet, drink Greek coffee and go on the internet. In the afternoon I try to learn some Greek, go for a walk and read something in my book. I also went to the market en to see a church with Ellisavet. The church in Greece looks very different than in Holland.
Tonight Renee and Maria are visiting me and we go out in Florina and tommorow I go for a copple of days to Larissa (it's a city about 3 hours from Florina) their are some other EVS volunteers, one of them is Peter I met on the preparation day.
