Mezanima me :)

And with the end of the month and of the term, came also my last National Conference in AIESEC in Croatia as President.

.

It is hard to condensate everything I felt in words but the best word to define it is fulfilled. After 2 years in Croatia I truly feel that the organization evolved, there was positivism in the atmosphere, there were achievements to celebrate, there was a legacy that we passed on and amazing people that will lead the organization.

.

On the personal level, there was such a mixture of feelings. I was happy but also a bit sad and emotional. The probabilities that such moments will ever repeat are minimum. Some of the most important people that influenced my experience in this country were there, most of my best Croatian friends were there and some of my best moments in AIESEC in Croatia including parties in the hallway, bush diving, sunrises, conversations, faci meetings, MC roll call, succession of AIESEC in Croatia and a lot of randomness happened in this conference… So much to remember…

.

In the end, Hvala Puno AIESEC Hrvatska! Make me proud :)

Last month of my AIESEC active Career

My last month as an active AIESECer just began by going back to the roots. I went to Portugal for a weekend because of the wedding of a very good friend of mine who was also the President of AIESEC in Portugal when I was working on that team that year.

.

The whole experience to meet team again, to remember all experiences we went through made me feel very nostalgic but also satisfied by realizing how we all evolved since then and the amazing experiences we are all gathering from all around the world literally!

Then I managed also to be present in the moment where many people that influenced my career became Alumnus and to participate in my good friend Hugo farewell dinner before he leaves to his new challenge, Netherland and the AIESEC International.

Finally, I became Alumnus of my home LC, AIESEC Lisboa ISCTE. It was a natural step to take and it felt good to have there “present” the people who contributed so much for my experience to be what it was. It was like to look at my life through others people eyes and it also made me realize how lucky I was to have such extraordinary people in my AIESEC career but moreover as my friends! Everything was special and memorable as I always wanted it to be, including the end. Even when some things do not turn out the way we would like to, it just adds value to the entire experience.

And when I returned to Croatia, WILL found OPPORTUNITY so I did a lot of things that I always wanted to during May:

.

Have a chilled lunch with my team;

Visit one of the most beautiful places I’ve been into, the Plitvice Lakes, a natural park of Croatia;

To see finally how the St.Mark church in Zagreb looks like after the recovery works done;

And to enjoy the fact that Zagreb had a record number of interns with whom I had many quality moments :)
