Activity- hiking (experience)

Image
 17/07/24 I went on a light hike with my grandparents in the Italian Dolomites. It was a very memorable experience as the view was beautiful and I always enjoyed hiking. A difficulty we encountered was that we had to make it back in time before 17:00 as that was when the chair lift closed. Thankfully, we got there just in time and they let us use it to go down to the area where we left our car. Furthermore, sometimes we went off-path and had to walk through areas of various weeds and bushes which was quite challenging as it was easy to unbalance and fall. This experience made me a risk-taker. 19/07/24 I also went on this hike with my grandparents and though the distance was shorter, it was more challenging as the path got quite steep in certain areas and we had to climb on rocks. This made it especially challenging for my grandma so I had to help her and wait for her which is also a reason why we took so long. The place was beautiful and this made the hike very memorable.

Service- Szlachetna Paczka

Image
 I chose to be one of the leaders of the Szlachetna Paczka organization as I always enjoyed helping others, especially those in need. We often take for granted everything we have in life as it seems meaningless and obvious (like being able to afford healthy food and basic sanitary products used daily). However, unfortunately, many don't have this luxury, usually because of financial problems. Participating in this organization will allow me to help families in need of financial support, therefore hopefully improving their lifestyle. Tal and I have been creating a plan that will hopefully make the tasks more organized and understandable for us and for the rest of our team. So far we have had one live group meeting in which we discussed everyone's job in allowing this project to happen.

Activity- dance

  14/09/23 21/09/23                     28/09/23 05/10/23 12/10/23 19/10/23 20/10/23 This is my second year dancing, the dance genre is called 'commercial' and it's a mix of jazz and hip hop. My classes are at Egurrola Dance Studio. We used to have 2 hours per week but now we just started having an extra hour on Fridays. I like it a lot as it's a fun way to stay in shape. Last year, me and my group went to a competition and got second place, this year we will likely attend more competitions. I think working as a group helps us all motivate and help each other but at times if I feel behind with a certain choreography I find it slightly stressful. A difficulty I noticed I have is that I keep my moves quite restricted when I should be always using my full body for every dance move, using as much energy as possible, so this is something I will be working to improve upon. Another goal I want to achieve is to become more 'smooth' when I d...
