Moi! Anna, from Finland to Mallorca.

¡Saludos, Calvià!



I am Anna, a 29-year-old Finn currently preparing my adventure to Mallorca. I live in our beautiful capital Helsinki and work as an archaeologist (yep, it’s almost exactly like in those Indiana Jones movies).

I have always wanted to volunteer through EVS and decided to do it now when I had the perfect opportunity! For me, Mallorca offers a great chance to spend some time in an amazing environment, and of course, to improve my Spanish.


Nature and all kind of living creatures are very important to me, and most likely one can find me in the streets sweet-talking to some cats and dogs. This is also the reason why I wish to volunteer for environmental projects. I share my home with three guinea pigs and I am sure that I will miss them while I’m away!


I hope to meet different kind of people from different backgrounds and learn something from each of them. I can’t wait until I’m in Calvia!

 - Anna

CECILIA: More about my experience in Lithuania

Hi! This past month I have not written blog because I went to Christmas to Spain and I have not spent much time here. At the beginning of December I was able to visit the Christmas tree that they put next to the cathedral every year, next to a small Christmas market where I bought a couple of things to give to my family. Now in January I have returned, and in the kindergarten there have been two news volunteer girls, from another organization, who come to spend with us 6 weeks, they are from Hungary and Ukraine, they are very nice, and another new volunteer girl has also come from Turkey but she is from my organization, and lives with me, and will be with us all year. These days in the kindergarten we have done some activities since we are quite a few volunteers, for example we have made bracelets with colored threads, we have made origami forms with colored papers, etc. and I wanted to show them a Mallorcan tradition that is celebrated on January 16, wher...

Arrival Training en Kokkola (Finlandia).

¡Hola, majos! En esta entrada os quiero hablar de mi experiencia en mi Arrival Training . Si estáis haciendo un Servicio de Voluntariado Europeo, o como se conoce ahora, Cuerpo de Solidaridad Europeo, una de vuestras actividades durante vuestro proyecto es la del Arrival Training , la formación de llegada. Consiste en que a todas las personas que llevan menos de 3 meses realizando su proyecto de voluntariado en el país donde lo realizan se reúnen para tratar los derechos y deberes del voluntario. Mediante actividades dinámicas, juegos y hasta alguna clase de Finlandés en mi caso, conocemos la importancia de ser un voluntario europeo y la forma de poder aprovechar la oportunidad. Personalmente, creo que también es una forma muy útil de conocer a personas que están en la misma situación que tú y que, incluso si echas de menos personas de tu país, también es probable que encuentres alguna. Puedes hacer amigos y, si tienes amigos en distintos lugares del país, es más fácil vi...

¡Hola, guapos y guapas! I hope that your last month was as nice as mine and that you are enjoying reading our blog and participating a bit in our Mallorca life! January has been full of emotions. I am going to tell you some highlights in a very short way. My 2019 started at high speed: in my free time I continued visiting around both the island and the peninsula. Madrid has been a discovery because I didn't expect at all that it's such a fascinating city. I will go back there for sure! I also took the chance of exploring the neighborhood that let me change my mind again about Mallorca: it's even more wonderful than I already thought. This island has so many different landscapes and views, so nice pueblitos and so friendly people. Then the month finished with the middle-term evaluation: we flew to Malaga and we met 70 other volunteers from all over Spain. It has been a moment of pure joy sharing our volunteering experiences and working on how we co...
