Hello Everyone,
L'viv was amazing!!! Christy and I got to go to the opera, and get to know Lesya and her wonderful volunteers. I am never going to consider our hot chocolate, hot chocolate again, after experiencing the hot chocolate in L'viv. Christy and I are now in Lutsk and staying in "hotel Ukraine" aka Ivana's house lol. It is really nice to see friends from camp again, and make new ones. Yesterday, Christy and I had a picnic with Seveta one of the leaders from camp, and two of the campers. The food was so delicious and the company was lovely! Today, Christy and I are going to be going on an excersion to the castle in Lutsk, and take part in an interview about Canada and the partnership. Tonight, Christy is going to be facilitating a session at YMCA Lutsk, and I am looking forward to learning lots, and see what comes out of the session. Tomorrow, Christy and I will be off to Dubno to hopefully see a few other of our camp friends, and visit the YMCA there. Then its to Keiv, and then home, which I have mixed feelings about. It will be sad to say goodbye, but I am looking forward to seeing everyone I miss.
Till next blog,
Jillian
This blog is for YMCA Calgary youth delegates to share their experiences as they visit our partners at YMCA Ukraine. International YMCA partnerships allow us to build global awareness through real relationships. We share knowledge and resources while we learn from each other. Young leaders develop skills and confidence to advance peace, social justice and dignity in their own community.
