GHANA, MMRS OGILVY, June 2009- January 2010
It happened… Just as Aqua was telling me at the beginning of my internship… I felt in love with Ghana! It may be the country… and it’s definitely the experience .
I remember my first 2 weeks here… I was feeling like it was the worse choice ever, now I KNOW that it is the best one.
I felt so many things being here: excitement when I first arrived, boredom in the first weeks at work, happiness when visiting so many amazing places, hatred when I was robbed, and homesickness almost every week, gratefulness for getting to know some really great people, fear and disgust for my sleazy neighbor that peaks at me behind his curtains, and the list may go on.
After 3 months in Ghana I know what I want to do with the rest of my life .
How can somebody put in words all the emotion? All the memories? All the feelings? I know I can’t!
AIESEC is a wonderful world It’s not a perfect world, but what is perfection?
For me AIESEC was the space where I learned incredible many things, made new friends, developed skills, gathered strength, became courageous…
Thank you AIESEC Iasi and AIESEC Romania !
