AIESECE life

HI!! Let me wish all of you happy new year!! I just wanted to tell how we are spending time here. First, we attend AIESEC meetings here. The structure is the same as in KG, new recruiters tell about progress of their PBox projects but after the meeting they go to drink a beer. Hey, maybe we should also introduce this tradition in Kirgizstan?? Then we have some AIESEC parties regularly recently had christmas party in our aparment. You can see on our pictures how it was!!!














Now about the internship. It is ok, we are working not under the pressure and waiting for our aparture to Bansko ski resort for working. By the way, our boss is former LCP of Veliko Tarnovo, can you imagine it??? And the trainer of training which was provided to us in Sofia, the owner of all regional REMAX in Bulgaria from Austria was also AIESECer!!! So, guys big men are grown from AIESEC experience!! Christian, it's his name, told us that he still remebers his days in AESEC and dark circles under his eyes after the parties he also told us that would come to AIESEC office in VT in february!! So AIESECers stay committed to their organization all life long!! ;)

Also we went to Aiesec conference and danced AIESEC dances here! Common, guys, it turned out to be so cool to dance them with a big company!! Go ahead, learn them and we will dance together when we are back!









For new year we are staying in the town as there in no enough time for us to go to Macedonia with all Aiesecers as we couldn't make the residential permit. So tomorrow we are cooking olivie and drinkig shampain and in the night we'll go to dance club ORGANZA which holds 3 room: chaga (bulgarian pop-folk), house and commercial and is much better equiped that ours in Bishkek and young people hanging out here more crazzy!!!

By the way, why only we make posts on this blog?? Hey, it is our common filed to share news and feelings. Lumi, maybe yoou write about your parties, progress or other news?? Please feel free everyone to write here messages or comments.

WOW! I feel excited!

Hello, everyone. It's my turn to write here i guess))).

Ok, we recently came back to VT (Veliko Turnovo) from Sofia. We had a great RE/MAX party there. (On the pic: Interns with bosses on the party).

Honestly, I didn't like Sofia so much as I like VT now. I hope I'll visit more beatiful places here in Bulgaria. And we're also thinking about Greece. These are only plans now.

As for now, we are going to have another RE/MAX party this wednesday! And Shtelyan (our boss) wants to take us to Bansko on Thursday. Bankso is a ski resort where are planning to work after New Year.

We finally started working and now doing some research stuff for the whole day in order to prepare brochure and presentation for investors in the result. It's a very useful work I think, which should help us to sell a big building (currently under construction).

It's getting very cold here. So, we need to buy more warm clothes to survive))).

The mexican girl Tania, which is living with us, is very nice and we spend all days together....working, shopping, laughing, cooking etc... We speaks really good English, so, sometimes we learn smth new from her. We also have English man in RE/MAX and have an opportunity to practice our English and learn new words when none of us knows them in English))). (On the pic: I'm in the old part of VT).

And... of cource, these bulgarian men surprise me every day))). They clean, cook and never think it's not for them... They seem to be perfect.)))

GOOD NEWS!!!! Our LCP in VT - Atanas Genkov (Nasko) - became MCP today!!!!! Yeaaahhhh!!! (We already prepared balloons) VT rules))). We are in the right place and in the right time!)) We are so happy, because he's really a great person, who's living with AIESEC in his heart. I'm sure, he'll be the best MCP in the Bulgaria's history.

We also have been on the AIESEC party and learned internationl AIESEC dances!!! So, wait for us, will dance together, because it's a big fun!!!))).

Ok, guys!!! Hope you enjoy staying with AIESEC and coming holidays!!!

Merry Christmas, AIESECers!!!

we are making internship FINALLY

Hi everybody!!!!!!!!! let me convey you the warmest greetings from Bulgaria!!!!! IT is just so cooll to be here!!!! Alhough we had some problems with getting here (our flight was delayed from Bishkek to Istanbul then our fligh to Sofia was delayed for 4 hours because of fog and then was canceled in the end. herefore we had to take bus from Istanbul to Sofia and from Sofia to Veliko Tarnovo again we took the bus...), we are so happy to be here!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Well, first about the internship! it sounds to be very interesting as we have lots of tasks, trainings and travelings. For ex tomorrow we are going to Sofia for trinings in he morning and in the evening we have a company CHristmas party!!! then the next week we have again company Christmas company but this time like the local one in Veliko Tarnovo and after the new year we are going to Bansko city on the south of Bulgaria. There is ski resort there and we will promote local real estate. Indeed the company is great it is fastly growing and dominating on the real estate market and here it is also like number one. We had press conference on the meeting where we were oficially introduced to mass media! :)

Now about the people!!!! ohhh they are amazing!!!!!! They are kind, open and friendly, eager to help. our LCP Nasko he is such a great guy - very caring and kindhearted! There are no such men in Kyrgyzstan unfortunately who prepares for u tea, fixes wash-bowl and switching on the air conditioner before your coming in order you are not feeling cold.. it's so cute!!!!

AIESEC Veliko Tarnovo is well organized we were at the general meeting and it was interesting. At the meeting we conveyed everybody the greetings from Aiesec KG and they applaused you and asked us to convey their greeetings back to you! :) but the main aspect that i like that LC here is really friendly and that they have always conferences, parties, they go together to clubs, pubs, karaoke so the student life is very interesting here but...... they do not study so much because they have a choice to do it... and on friday evenign we have aiesec party, on saturday it is study tour for us about the city and in the evening we go to the disco club..... Besides, we are living in the so-called "Aiesec apartment " so everyday our apartment is crowded with Aiesec members, they drink beer, play cards, chatting, watching movies, eating together and so on... So please everbody applies for aiesec internship, u wil have so much fun and enjoyable time!!

now about the city... Veiko turnovo is an acient capital of Bulgaria so it is very historical and for sure very very beautiful!!!!!!! there are many churches, museums and bridges and there is royal fortress near our office which looks magnificient but we will be inside it only on Saturday.

so we will kep in touch with u later and please follow the blofg and put some comments!!!

NEW Rules for Bulgaria!

Well, as you know we were going to Bulgaria... two days ago Bulgaria accepted new rules:

>>> To come to Bulgaria as intern of AIESEC's exchange program you need to show in the Labour Bureau in the town of the hosting Local commottee an official Note/Document from your university stating that you are student there and that you need this internship as part of your education - like a compulsory practicum. You should check under what circumstances you could get this document from the university because it varies from university to university and from country to country - in some countries you could be provided with such Note/Document if you are undergraduate, or after you enroll for a second bachelor degree or a master degree.

>>> And after you take this document from the University you should bring it to your Ministry of Education (or another ministry - it's up to the local reality - that deals with approvemnt and quality standards tracking of universities in your country) to ask them to put their official seal on your University Note/Document - this seal would mean that your university is a legal university and is accreditted from the State and the Ministry of Education.

You could ask in your university where exactly to go for such a seal, they should be informed about this procedure and the details about it.

So, just keep it in mind when you apply for Bulgaria!

BTW, these rules are also for Germany and France.
