Time flies, but not memories.

Last hello for everybody! I can't believe my practice time here in Hungary and Human-net has come to an end. It feels like I just started my practice here and now 6 weeks has passed. At the same time I'm happy to going back home but at the same time it makes me so sad to leave Hungary, my practice place, new friends and co-workers. But that's what they say, all good things come to an end.




On Monday we had the last morning meeting with co-workers but i had meeting with my teacher so i couldn't go there. After that we went to Community-house to plan programs for youngsters and we made also some handicraft for those programs. We were discussing about volunteers plan for summer programs and sharing opinions about it. I'm so sad that i can't make the programs in summer with them. :(

Monday evening we went to some kind of student festival with my friends. There was some performances, people were singing and dancing and everything. It was a lot of fun and it will last from monday to wednesday! 



On Tuesday I went to the main office to thank everybody and tell them goodbye. After that we came to Community-house again and I started to write my blog and essays for school. I skipped to write my essays so many times that now i have a lot to work, poor me haha. And of course we had little extra time for selfies! ;)










Holiday´s dinner



On wednesday we are going to Amsterdam with my friends and maybe i could make an extra post about that trip.


This time here in Human-net and Hungary has teached me so many things and i can't even tell how grateful i am for everyone i've met here. I've seen so many special things here and learned so much from Hungarian social security system and I'm sure that it will be my strenght in future as a socialworker. I've grown here so much as a person and all these lessons i've learned here will make me to be a great socialworker some day! 

Köszönöm viszontlátásra!

Short week and new experiences

Hello people! Last week was (again) short week for me because i was sick. On tuesday we were at Community house planning programs for summer on discussing about our plans and ideas. We realized that programs has to be very well organized and there should be some motivation for youngsters to come and we need to make sure that we have some kind of plan B if they get bored or if they dont like programs etc. Its also important to think "how youngsters think" so we can make  programs they really like.

The main building of our University



On Friday there was YES NYIREGYHAZA press conference and opening evening. There was a lot of people from different organizations and potential partners. Those people were introducing their companies and ideas and it was so interesting to listen their presentations and ideas. There was (of course) a lot of new information for me. 








On saturday we went to Tokaj for wine tasting, picnic and sightseeing with my friends. 




Yes, there was also wedding :D








See You later, stay tuned!

The best preparation for good work tomorrow is to do good work today.

Hello and have a nice Monday! I was in Budapest for the weekend with my mum and sisters so that´s why im only writing today.

Last week was short week in Human-net for me because I was sick and i had some school essays to do. On Monday we started our day at morning meeting as usual. The topics were about coming week and last week, clients and their cases and our feelings and experiences about Human-net Foundation. We were talking about last weekends programs and everything.

After that we went to Community house and planned volunteers free-time programs for youngsters on their holiday.



                                          Picture is not so good but here we are, working hard for youngsters :D


Monday evening we were playing football with my friends (again) but i don´t have any pictures about it. Tuesday was my day off and i was writing my online-course essays for my University in Finland. It was little bit boring haha. Wednesday i was feeling sick so i stayed at home and got some rest.

On thursday we were in Among others -course again. Topics were about different people in different social status and we played some "game" about that. We had to imagine ourselves to be for example homeless people, immigrants, single mothers without job etc. and we had to focus on questions and compare them about our life. It was very instructive and gave us different point of view to think for example our future clients. Again i really enjoyed to be "a student" in that group and those methods we used were very useful for me and i think i can use them in future as well.




And like i said, on Friday i went to Budapest with my family. It was sooo good to see my sisters and my mother again after 3 months. We are very close so we had a lot to talk about and of course we enjoyed the beautiful city. 


Mum, my sisters and me <3


A lot of candy :P

And I just realized that i have only 3 weeks left here in Hungary, oh my god how time flies!! I really need to enjoy my last weeks here. I´m gonna miss my time here so bad :(


Stay tuned!
