Kind of different Christmas

How did you guys enjoy the Christmas? My Christmas holidays were a bit different this year. Do you know why? My friends who come from Brazil and Belgium have visited me in my hometown Liberec. I had to show them the city centre and Ještěd of course. This is how we spent Christmas Eve.

Zoo.
My friends from Brazil told me that there are totally different Zoo in Brazil. They have never seen giraffes and elephants for instance.

Me and my friends Rafaele and Cynthia from Brazil.

Jizera Mountains.
Czech nature is very beautiful. 

Me and my friend Jonathan from Belgium.

Finally it´s snowing a bit. Rafa has never seen the snow before so she is quite happy.

This is what I´ve got.

How do you like my new dress?

 We have never had so many bottles under the Christmas tree.

I am playing with my nieces. This is how it looks like. I am the fairy by the way.

This year I spent the Christmas with my Erasmus friends. It is quite different because you usually spend it with your family, right? However I do not regret it. I am happy for it. I hope to see you soon in Belgium, Hungary or maybe even in Brazil.

There is always something going on in my life

Hi guys,
what´s up? When I´m in Liberec there is always something happening. Yes, I´m quite busy. However, I don´t mind right now. I can always find a time to do what I like.

Excursion
I wanna know basics about companies which are situated in North part of Bohemia where I am living. Denso is one of them.

Škoda is quite famous brand of cars in the Czech Republic. There is a very interesting trainee programme for graduates.

The automotive industry is very important for my country. Magna is a world renowned manufacturer and supplier of components and systems for the automotive industry.

Last week I went to Kamax which is situated in town Turnov. The company Kamax is technologically leading global manufacturer of high-strength fasteners for the automotive industry.

Night of Warriors
This is a very prestigious event in Liberec. It´s about professional boxing K1 and MMA.

Culture in Liberec
We did have a statue of leopards woman which represents actress and campaigner for freedom- Josephine Baker. However only for 2 days because it was destroyed by some guy during the night.

Yesterday I went to the theater and on sunday I´m going again.

The document about Afganistan. Last week I had a speech again. This scarf which you can see on the photo below comes from Afganistan.

W-linie
W-linie is a Czech brand of clothes. I like it very much as well as my mom which means that we buy clothes here quite often.

And finally I wanna wish you Merry Christmas. This year it´s gonna be a bit different for me because my friends who come from Brazil and Belgium are coming to visit me in Liberec. Enjoy Christmas holidays.

Christmas time is here

Hello.
Do you like Christmas time? I always feel like I can´t wait to unwrap my presents. On the other hand I don´t like (actually hate) when I am cold and right now it´s cold in my country. At least for me. I know it is going to be worst but still. During last few days the temperature was around -4 degree, brrr..

Huddersfield, 2011
Do you remember England? It was the first time I´ve been away around Christmas holidays so I could see their Christmas lights, decorations and everything.

Barcelona, 2013
Also during my Erasmus internship I had a chance to see how it works abroad around Christmas.

with my friends Petra and Guille

Czech Republic, 2014
You can always notice beautiful Christmas decorations in malls as well as crazy people shopping at the last minute.

Liberec
This is our Christmas tree. There was a problem with electricity or something during the ceremony when they wanted to turn on the lights. Back than our main square was full of people, totally crowded. So you can imagine how everybody was quite angry.

Tree of Wishes
Do not forget about kids with no home. Every year my family buys some presents for them. This year I have chosen a boy who is 15 years old and his name is Walter, I think or something like that. I have very poor memory when it comes to names. Anyway I hope he will be happy about the gift.

And this week is finally snowing..

Christmas markets
This is how our main square looks like during these days.

What about you? Are you looking forward to Christmas? :-)

My current internship in Liberec

Hi guys.

Today I have decided to tell you something about my current internship. I am working in my hometown- Liberec. It´s unpaid but I don´t mind because it´s quite good point in my CV and I like my job, so :-)

A month ago I represented our Eurocentrum at the Education fair.  We provide infromation about EU, studying and working abroad, organization of lessons about EU for schools. In few days I will speak about celebration of Christmas in the EU in front of small kids from elementary school. That´s gonna be interesting. At least for me :-)

In our office.

the representative cup

I always wear nice clothes to our office. Unfortunately I always also forget to take a camera with me. Few days ago I finally did not fotget my camera but I forgot to dress formal. Yes, that´s all me :-)

Sometimes I have a speech when we organizace some events. This one was about Azerbaijan.
 

Last photo is from event called Going Europe which took place at our university few weeks ago. I had a chance to meet some Erasmus students in Liberec. They spoke about studying at universities as well as what is like to live there.

I think it´s good if you work a little bit already during your studies at university. Especially because you will gain some experience. Thus it will be easier to find a job later. Are you doing any internship as well? From January I will have another one. This time in Prague.

See you later
