Lucia din Olanda
<\/strong>“Decizia mea de a deveni voluntar a venit din dorin\u021ba de a m\u0103 face util\u0103 \u0219i de a contribui cu ceva la lumea din jurul meu. \u00cen loc s\u0103 \u00eenv\u0103\u021b lucruri noi \u0219i s\u0103 p\u0103strez acele cuno\u0219tin\u021be \u0219i acele abilit\u0103\u021bi pentru mine, am vrut s\u0103 fac ceva cu ele \u0219i s\u0103 m\u0103 fac util\u0103. \u00cen ultimii ani, am fost implicat \u00een diferite proiecte \u0219i servicii de voluntariat, de exemplu babysitting, str\u00e2ngerea de fonduri sau prepararea unor mancaruri pentru organiza\u021bii de caritate dar, \u0219i traducerea \u0219i verificarea textelor. F\u0103c\u00e2nd acest lucru, am \u00eent\u00e2lnit o mul\u021bime de oameni grozavi, m-a ajutat s\u0103 c\u00e2\u0219tig mai mult\u0103 experien\u021b\u0103 \u0219i s\u0103-mi construiesc \u00eencrederea.
C\u00e2nd am v\u0103zut anun\u021bul de la Curba de Cultur\u0103 de a promova zona Tei\u0219anului \u00eentr-un proiect de voluntariat, am \u0219tiut c\u0103 aici pot pune \u00een practic\u0103 ce am \u00eenv\u0103\u021bat la universitate pentru o cauz\u0103 bun\u0103.

Flavie din Fran\u021ba
“<\/strong>Bun\u0103 ziua tuturor! Numele meu este Flavie, am 19 ani \u0219i vin din Fran\u021ba. Am ajuns la Curba acum o luna \u0219i stau \u00een Rom\u00e2nia pana la jum\u0103tatea lunii iulie. \u00cemi doresc s\u0103 fac voluntariat \u00eencp de c\u00e2nd eram la liceu. \u00cen septembrie anul acesta am \u00eenceput o specializare \u00een economie. Destul de cur\u00e2nd mi-am dat seama c\u0103 nu va func\u021biona din multe motive. Unul dintre ele era c\u0103 \u00eemi doream s\u0103 m\u0103 simt util\u0103 \u0219i activ\u0103. De aceea am \u00eenceput s\u0103 fac cercet\u0103ri despre cum \u0219i unde a\u0219 putea face voluntariat. O prieten\u0103 de-a mea auzise printr-o prieten\u0103 de-a ei c\u0103 un program european, Corpul European de Solidaritate, permitea tinerilor din \u021b\u0103rile europene s\u0103 fac\u0103 voluntariat \u00een str\u0103in\u0103tate. Mi-am creat un cont, mi-am actualizat CV-ul \u00een englez\u0103 \u0219i am \u00eenceput s\u0103 aplic la unele proiecte. Curba de Cultura a r\u0103spuns foarte repede \u0219i m-am g\u00e2ndit \u201eAsta e, chiar se \u00eent\u00e2mpl\u0103!\u201d. M-am sim\u021bit foarte recunosc\u0103toare c\u0103 o asocia\u021bie mi-a dat \u00een sf\u00e2r\u0219it \u0219ansa de a face ceea ce \u00eemi doream de at\u00e2ta timp. De c\u00e2nd am ajuns, am descoperit o mul\u021bime de lucruri. Trec\u00e2nd de la sortarea alfabetic\u0103 a c\u0103r\u021bilor \u0219i punerea la loc a unei biblioteci, la crearea de etichete pe care s\u0103 le pun\u0103 pe borcanele cu miere un apicultor local, la crearea unei pinata pentru un eveniment. A fost, de asemenea, foarte dificil, trebuie s\u0103 recunosc. Trebuie s\u0103 \u00eenve\u021bi s\u0103 lucrezi cu oameni noi, s\u0103 tr\u0103ie\u0219ti cu oameni noi, \u00een timp ce descoperi o \u021bar\u0103 cu totul diferit\u0103, cu propria sa limb\u0103, culturi \u0219i obiceiuri. Dar consider asta un lucru foarte pozitiv, deoarece m\u0103 \u00eempinge \u0219i \u00eemi permite s\u0103-mi lucrez abilit\u0103\u021bile, r\u0103bdarea \u0219i s\u0103 p\u0103strez mintea deschis\u0103. De asemenea, cred cu t\u0103rie c\u0103 toate provoc\u0103rile cu care m\u0103 confrunt acum sunt un antrenament uimitor pentru orice se va \u00eent\u00e2mpla \u00een continuare \u00een via\u021ba mea. Sper s\u0103 ne vedem cur\u00e2nd! La revedere!”<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Cl\u00e9mentine din Fran\u021ba
<\/strong>“M\u0103 numesc Cl\u00e9mentine, am 20 de ani, vin din Fran\u021ba \u0219i am decis s\u0103 fac voluntariat ca o pauz\u0103 de la studii.
Am fost \u00eentotdeauna atrasa s\u0103 ajut oamenii, s\u0103 fiu util\u0103  \u0219i s\u0103 particip la un proiect semnificativ, iar voluntariatul a reunit toate aceste lucruri.
Deoarece sunt voluntar\u0103, \u00eemi place foarte mult timpul petrecut \u00een aceste proiecte. De fapt, \u00eenv\u0103\u021b o mul\u021bime de lucruri \u0219i \u00eemi permite s\u0103-mi \u00eembun\u0103t\u0103\u021besc abilit\u0103\u021bile, cum ar fi cum s\u0103 folosesc re\u021belele sociale, s\u0103 preg\u0103tesc activit\u0103\u021bi \u0219i s\u0103 lucrez \u00een echip\u0103.
\u00cen plus, a fi voluntar \u00eenseamn\u0103 a fi \u00een mod constant \u00een procesul de a te cunoa\u0219te pe tine \u0219i pe ceilal\u021bi. \u00centr-adev\u0103r, \u00eenv\u0103\u021b multe de la al\u021bii, din experien\u021bele lor, culturile \u0219i energia lor \u0219i sunt foarte recunosc\u0103toare pentru asta.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Am decis s\u0103 aplic pentru urm\u0103torul proiect de un an, mai mult sau mai pu\u021bin, numit Tinemobilul – Fury Road. De ce? Foarte simplu, s\u0103 m\u0103 bucur din nou de experien\u021b\u0103, s\u0103 \u021bin leg\u0103tura cu to\u021bi oamenii pe care i-am \u00eent\u00e2lnit \u0219i s\u0103 continui s\u0103 \u00eenv\u0103\u021b \u0219i s\u0103 explorez aceast\u0103 \u021bar\u0103 frumoas\u0103 \u0219i mai ales zonele rurale prin care ne vom plimba..
Sunt cu siguran\u021b\u0103 foarte \u00eenc\u00e2ntat s\u0103 \u00eencep aceast\u0103 nou\u0103 etap\u0103 cu ei.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Sara din Fran\u021ba
<\/strong>“Am \u00eenceput s\u0103 fac voluntariat datorit\u0103 liceului meu. \u00cen 2014, am participat la ziua patrimoniului local, pentru a explica istoria \u0219i a ar\u0103tat r\u0103m\u0103\u0219i\u021bele din Amfiteatrul din Arles. A fost \u0219i prima dat\u0103 c\u00e2nd am vorbit \u00een fa\u021ba unui grup mare (cam patruzeci de oameni) . Aceast\u0103 experien\u021b\u0103 a fost util\u0103 pentru a-mi \u00eenvinge timiditatea. Am f\u0103cut \u0219i voluntariat pentru o galerie temporal\u0103 din Montpellier. \u00cen timpul zilei zonelor umede, aceast\u0103 asocia\u021bie organizeaz\u0103 \u00een fiecare an un festival de art\u0103 despre ecologie \u0219i arta stradal\u0103. Am f\u0103cut o mul\u021bime de activit\u0103\u021bi precum controlul s\u0103lilor de art\u0103 sau, de asemenea, preg\u0103tirea mesei \u0219i am preluat comenzile clien\u021bilor la o gustare. \u0218i c\u00e2nd am participat \u00een al doilea an, am preg\u0103tit comunicarea digital\u0103 a arti\u0219tilor pe site. Am avut conversa\u021bii cu arti\u0219tii pentru a crea un text despre ei \u0219i lucr\u0103rile lor. Acele prime experien\u021be mi-au permis s\u0103 cunosc oameni din \u021b\u0103ri noi \u0219i, de asemenea, s\u0103 descop\u0103r noi tradi\u021bii, culturi sau mod de via\u021b\u0103, iar asta mi-a dat dorin\u021ba de a c\u0103l\u0103tori \u0219i de a urm\u0103ri acest lucru.
A\u0219a c\u0103, dup\u0103 studii, m-am hot\u0103r\u00e2t s\u0103 c\u0103l\u0103toresc \u0219i mi-a dat timp s\u0103 cunosc localnici, mul\u021bumit\u0103 programului workaway. Este una dintre cele mai bune experien\u021be ale mele, m-am putut descoperi \u00een aceste c\u00e2teva luni. Am \u00eenv\u0103\u021bat noi lucruri \u00een timp ce credeam c\u0103 nu sunt capabil\u0103 s\u0103 fac asta (cum ar fi renovarea sau t\u0103iatul lemnelor) sau, de asemenea, s\u0103 vorbesc o alt\u0103 limb\u0103 dec\u00e2t franceza. Nu a fost o sarcin\u0103 u\u0219oar\u0103 ahah!
Deci, pentru mine, voluntariatul te ajut\u0103 s\u0103 te descoperi pe tine \u00eensu\u021bi!”<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Primul voluntariat pe care l-am f\u0103cut a fost la un fel de evenimente sportive pentru persoanele cu sindromul Down.

We gathered a series of testimonials from our volunteers for the occasion of this celebration day. Volunteering is important in our daily life, and we are proud of the impact we have on international and Romanian youngsters.
Let’s read more and discover how volunteering in different context is a life changing.<\/em>
<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Lucia from Netherlands<\/strong>
“My decision to become a volunteer came forth out of the wish to make myself useful and contribute something to the world around me. Instead of just learning new things and keeping that knowledge and those skills to myself, I wanted to do something with it and make myself useful. Over the last years I have been involved in different voluntary projects and services, for example baby-sitting, collecting money or baking food for charities, and translating and checking texts. By doing this I met a lot of great people, and it helped me gain more experience and build up my confidence. When I saw Curba\u2019s call to promote the area of Tei\u015fani in a voluntary project, I knew that here I could put my lessons from university into practice for a good cause. I am so glad that I made the decision to come to Romania and join this project, because for me volunteering is not just working without being paid. It is sharing and gaining skills, sharing and gaining experiences, making yourself useful, being surrounded by similar-minded people and working together towards the same goal. I learned more about the world, about diverse social and cultural backgrounds and about differences and inequality. And the voluntary actions don\u2019t have to be big or difficult, even the smallest actions can be important!”<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Flavie from France
“<\/strong>Hello everyone !
My name is Flavie, I am 19 years old, and I come from France.
I arrived at Curba a month ago and I am staying in Romania until the middle of July. I have been wanting to do volunteering since I was in High School. In September this year I was actually starting a new degree, an economics degree. Soon enough I realized it wasn\u2019t going to work out for so many reasons. One of them was that I was yearning to feel useful and active. That is why I started to do my research about how and where I could do some volunteering. A friend of mine had heard through a friend of hers that a European program, the European Solidarity Corps, allowed young people from European countries to volunteer abroad. I created myself an account, updated my CV in English and started to apply to some missions. Curba de Cultura answered very quickly and I thought \u201cThis is it, it\u2019s happening!\u201d. I felt very grateful that an association finally gave me a chance to do what I had wanted to do for so long. Since I arrived, I have discovered loads of things. Going from sorting alphabetically books and putting a library back together, to creating labels to put on honey jars for a local beekeeper, to creating a pinata for an event. It has also been very challenging I have to admit. You have to learn to work with new people, to live with new people, while at the same time discover a whole different country with its own language, cultures and habits. But I consider this a very positive thing as it is pushing me and allowing me to work on my skills, my patience and to keep an open mind. I also strongly believe that all the challenges I am facing now are an amazing training for whatever is going to happen next in my life. Hoping to see you soon! La revedere.” <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Cl\u00e9mentine from France <\/strong>
“My name is Cl\u00e9mentine, I\u2019m 20 years old, I come from France, and I decided to volunteer for a break in my studies. I was always attracted to helping people, being useful and participating in a meaningful project and volunteering brought all these things together.
Since I\u2019m a volunteer, I really enjoy my time on my project. In fact, I learn a lot of things and it allows me to improve my skills like how to use social media, preparing activities and working together. 
Furthermore, to be a volunteer is to be constantly in the process of getting to know yourself and others. Indeed, I learn a lot from others, from their experiences, their cultures and their energy and I\u2019m really grateful for that.” <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Andr\u00e9s from Spain
<\/strong>“After my first experience as a short-term volunteer with Curba in F5 for 2 months to renovate Curba\u2019s headquarters was so enriching: we learned several skills when it came to rehabilitating a space where we can work and spend some time; In which I was able to meet more volunteers and make very good friends, I decided to apply for the next project of a year, more or less, called Tinemobilul – Fury Road. Why? Very simple, to enjoy the experience again, keep in touch with all the people I met and keep learning and exploring this beautiful country and especially the rural areas where we will be moving. 
I’m definitely very excited to start this new stage with them.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Sara from France
<\/strong>“I started volunteering thanks to my high school. In 2014, I participated in the local heritage day, to explain the history and show the remains in the Amphitheatre of Arles. It was also my first time that I talked in front of a big group (about forty people all together ). This experience was useful to beat my shyness. I also volunteered for the ephemeral gallery at Montpellier. During the wetlands day, this association organizes an art festival on ecology and street art. I did a lot of activities like controlling the art rooms or also preparing the meal and taked the commands of clients in a snack. And when I participated in my second year, I prepared the digital communication of the artists on the website. I had good conversations with the artists for creating a text on them and their works. Those first experiences allowed me to meet people of new countries and also to discover new traditions, cultures or way of life, and that gave me the desire to travel and to pursue this. 
So after my studies, I decided to travel and it gave me time to meet local people thanks to workaway . It is one of my best experiences, I could discover myself during these few months. I learnt new skills while I thought I was not able to do that ( like renovations or cutting the woods ) or also speak one other language than French, that it wasn’t an easy task ahah ! 
So for me, volunteering helps you discover yourself.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Roberto from Spain<\/strong>
“As a volunteer, I started with 16 years, the minimum age in Spain for do volunteering, so I was all my life involved in volunteering. The first volunteering that I made was with a kind of sport events for people with Down\u2019s Syndrome. I was there one year like a volunteer, and was so really nice because I learnt a lot of things with them, organizing the events and also with other volunteers. After, I started in some projects of volunteer in my high school, where like a volunteers we had to organize activities for kids.
Actually, I\u2019m a volunteer in my city with an association that makes activities and camps for children and they offer also help for families that need it. I\u2019m there like a volunteer since 3 years, and we made a lot of things, like events, camps, campaigns for take food for the families with economic difficulties or organize also some days for us, for the volunteers, for meet other people and learn between us. 
Finally, I have my experience like an international volunteer in Romania, and it was 2 projects where I met a lot of people, I learn languages, improve my English and also Romanian, learn about other people and doing things with Curba de Cultura.
Definitely, the volunteering for me is part of my life, is part of my personality and I could improve myself thanks to that.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n
