the "Academy"

Next weekend I'm traveling about as far as possible from where I live while still staying in Bulgaria and being in a decent sized town, Blagoevgrad
View Academy Travel in a larger map, to go to an additional training session with the Peace Corps that they decided to call an Academy. I'm not entirely sure why but the COD and TEFL programs will both be there while the YD one will be split into groups and sent to different sites to learn first hand from current volunteers.
Despite this less then fortunate set up I think it will actually be quite useful. One, I get to see my Pavolche friends, and two they will be covering topics that I want to know more about, how to teach english and how to apply for active EU programs in Bulgaria.
This link is from youth day, there was an online article written about it. The first paragraph is about the Youth Parliment that was recently formed hre and how the mayor, dep mayor and secretary were there to kick off youth day. Then there were various sports activited and awards handed out. The next line after that is about me and some of the other kids that had to talk in front of the whole group.
