GREETINGS FROM OUR BELGIAN TRAINEES:
Hello Villa Elba,
My name is Brecht I`m from Belgium, I live in Grotenberge, it`s a small city on the country side.
I study physical education so I like to do lots of different sports.
My hobbies are sporting in nature like moutainbike, climbing, surfing, skiing. I`m also a dancer. I dance by myself and give some lessons in different styles.
Iīm glad to be here in Kokkola, I just arrived so I didnīt see a lot yet . But here in villa elba the sight is very nice. Iīm looking forward to work here because it seems to be a nice working place.
I hope to do some different kinds of work here. Especially working in nature and give some programs.
Vele groeten ( Dutch greetings)
Brecht
my name is Frederik Stansens and just like Brecht I come from Belgium. I live in a little village called Olsene, thatīs about 150km away from the capital Brussels. I study to become a teacher in English, Dutch and IT (Information Technology). I practise different kinds of sports, I play soccer in the local team in Olsene, but I do other sports as well: tennis, judo and snowboarding.
I came to Finland because itīs a great opportunity to learn about a new culture and explore the beautiful nature. We will also be able to share interesting experiences with our co-workers and the volunteers. As I want to become a teacher, it would be nice to help in some programs with teenagers in the high schools or co-operate in the workshops organised by the youth centre.
Greetings,
Frederik
