Hey guys,

I strongly believe that life is full of surprises and that they come when you least expect them. Last weekend I’ve been trough the best facilitating experience of my AIESEC life (well my ex AIESEC life). I was supposed to be a quiet observer of the TtT^[1] conference held in a small village near Sibiu called Tilisca and help out the OC. I went there because I was eager to meet some very good friends and wanted to relax a little. Once we arrived there it turned out that they needed an extra facilitator :) and guess what, no one else was available.

It turned out to be an awesome experience, starting the people attending there, the location, my friends in the NTT (National Trainers Team) and ending the agenda. I for one was amazed by the passion and the amount of work put into this conference by these guys, really wanting to learn, really wanting to grow, to become the best trainers they could.

You don’t get that at NPS, or at any other AIESEC conference I’ve been till now. We’ve slept on the floor, had only one bathroom for 30 people, and were 1km away from any civilized place. In the end I realized, that bonds between people were created waiting in the line for the shower, chatting with your floor-mate and working together till 1 AM … Everyday for 3 long days. This is all what it takes, just to be pushed out of your comfort zone and be the best you can possible be.

My assigned home group was amazing, and I’ve got so involved I could feel their emotions in the last day when they’ve held their first live training. They’ve actually used all the things we tried to teach them in the previous days and performed beautifully. I don’t think there could be anything more rewarding for us, the faci team than this end result.

Thank you Robert, Gabi, Iulius and Cristi thank you guys for this awesome experience.

The Lion.
