Second day voluntary meeting

Because I didn’t do the workshops, I did all the other activities. So in the morning we had almost two hours of training and sports, which was so exhausting that sometimes it felt like a punishment, but it was fun. In the evening the guest from YFU Mexico taught us how to samba. Then we had a treasure hunt in Estonian. Our team, which consisted of me, my host mum and another volunteer, did very well. The hardest part for us was guessing the songs. One person had to sing Estonian songs and the others had to guess. As I was the only one in my team who could sing properly, I did the singing part. But of course I didn’t know the lyrics and I can’t learn them by listening to the song once. In the end I just tried to sing the most recognisable instrumental part and luckily the other volunteer knew a lot of the songs. So our performance was not good, but acceptable. In the evening we heated up the sauna again, and for me it was the first time I’d sat in a whirlpool built for five people with 14 other persons, and the first time I’d seen a sauna so crowded that some people were standing and many were sitting on each other’s laps. I entered my cabin at 2am.
