The new horizon

I don't really know how much time passed since we arrived in Gražutes Regional Park... maybe two, maybe three weeks? Time is not so important anymore.
Rocio and I are living in the Park's office - so we only have 20 steps down to our working place! We share the kitchen and the bathroom with a mysterious ornithologist, who lives in one of the three rooms. And even more luxury: we have got a washing mashine!!!
So far so good. How most of you already know, our mentor is called Vytas - he's a very kind and sympathetic person and I guarantee: you will never get bored with him as your "boss" and mentor. You've got nothing to do in your park? No problem, just visit us - we have plenty of work to do!
Varying from cutting wood in the forest, digging toilets and collecting trash to organising many summer-camps, environmental-education excursions and other activities with the local youth. Oh stop, not only local! At the moment we are doing an application for a big youth exchange in september - I hope it will work!

However, for getting a better impression of our work & life here, we recommend you to visit us here in Gražutes Regional Park - and we will even cook for you!

Introduction

Here we are: in Lithuania! As this Blog is not only for our friends at home, but as well for our fellows scattered in whole Lithuania, we want to start with a short introduction.

Rocio, my spanish companion, is from beautifull Andalusia. She's already 28, but we share the same expectations and we started to fit to one another quite well - she's a half-vegetarian now... ;-)
As I am not bold enough to render an excessive judgement about her, you'll have to wait 'till she finds the muse to introduce herself a little bit more in detail.

Me, Sabrina, I spent my childhood in the outback of Germany: southern Bavaria! Amongst cows and almost half-zombies I soon felt the desire to broaden my horizon and to get a feeling of what it means, being an "European". Actually it was the same motivation wich brought me to applicate for an EVS. Some of you might ask now: why the hell Lithuania?! As well I ask you: what di you know about Lithuania? Almost nothing? Dito! That's the reason - and furthermore the fact, that the mosquitoes here don't spread dangerous illnesses...
Well, I left it all behind: My friends, the never-empty-fridge and, of course, my family. I was still living with them, as I just finished High-School (with my 19 years). I know that these are only the basic informations, but either you already know me or we will get known to each other better very soon!
Looking forward to that one... all the best!
