EVS is a project of the European Union, which aims to increase the voluntary activities and the intercultural understanding amongst young people in Europe. It is an excellent opportunity to live abroad for a while and feel the life in that country, while working on a thrilling project. Although we can find all the “sugar-coated” facts about EVS on any official EU-web-page, it is not so easy to find the real opinions; weather volunteers consider the project as filled or killed time. I am quite lucky to have many friends who have somehow been involved in this project, and have therefore provided me with a deeper and better understanding about it.
