Hi Argonautas!
Welcome to this third blog of 2026.

March was, at work, a month of change, with the beginning of new projects, the end of some, and changes to others.

First of all, we had the training course in Tisno! It was a wonderful experience: first, because I loved the people we met; then, because we had amazing weather; and last but not least, because it was a great opportunity for me to discover training courses, understand how they differ from youth exchanges, and see their concrete impact. I also learned more specifically about the role and tasks of a youth leader in youth exchanges, which really sparked my interest, who knows, maybe I’ll try to become one someday ;)

Then I had a personal project I had been working on since December, which I teased a little in previous blogs, but it ended up being impossible to realize, so I had to come up with a new one. It was in March, after the training course, that I finally got a new idea. I had to present it to the team, and this time I really think it will be possible! At least they liked the idea. But I won’t say more here until they confirm 100% that it’s feasible, just to avoid a big disappointment if it’s not.

On the 24th, we held our final workshop of the project Winter Full of Lifewhich started in February. Twice a week, we were running workshops with the kids on different topics, and although it could be a bit overwhelming at times, we had a lot of fun and got to know the island’s kids: they’re amazing!

On a personal level, the time change boosted me a lot! Having daylight until 8 p.m ,and honestly, just having more sun in general, makes me so happy. The birds are singing, the trees are green, and the flowers are blooming; that’s all I need to feel like everything is possible!

That’s why I got my ears pierced again, and with Ona, we finally found the strength to walk all around the island: 27 km of breathtaking views, calm spots, crystal-clear water… and omg, lot of pain in the ass lol. I don’t know if I would do it again, but I would definitely recommend it to anyone mentally and physically ready.

I also decided to try things I had never done before, so I created my own vlog one evening with Ona, and this wonderful communication queen approved it, saying: “It’s funny.” It’s a good beginning no? 😅

Anyway, it was a big month full of change, fun, motivation, and creativity, always in the best company. I think it couldn’t have been better for our 6-month anniversary here on the island with Ona.

Now that summer is just around the corner, I’m really looking forward to what awaits us next month. So stay tuned, it’s far from over! ;)
