AIESEC & the centre of Gravity

The AIESEC Experience. That's what I've been living for the past week.
The experience of attending Indian June National Conference 2008: being among indians from 14 cities, plus dozens of trainees having dozens of nationalities, of sharing beliefs, entrepreneur feelings, leadership vibes, jives and roll-calls!!
As I wrote already, AIESEC is the association, the international platform for young leaders that I belong to, which intermediated this experience I'm having.
Its goal it to develop young people's potencial enabling them to have a positive IMPACT in society.
It's good being an AIESEC'er. Check it out in www.aiesec.org

Pondicherry, a tax-free east-coast city around the State of Tamil Nadu, is a warm fishy smelling 'beachy' looking city, nice for tourism, nice for night walks, nice for beach and tan as long as you cover to your neck ;P - but still you'll have 30 indians trying to take your picture just because you're different. Well, result: got a huge awful sun mark in my shoulders as I was wearing a t-shirt in an apparently non-burning atmosphere - Uhuh! Gotta recover now. :)
Auroville, most specially MATRIMANDIR, is a site to be visited. It helds an imense tree that supposedly marks the centre of Earth's gravity, and bears a phantastic golden big ball-structure inside which people medidate around a cristal in a dark atmosphere. Inspiring - to say the least! Didn't go in as you have to schedule 2 days prior to arrival, but would like to one day. Many people from all over the world live around AUROVILLE nowadays: it is designed independently from any religion and welcomes anyone who wants to live a well-being spiritual peaceful life. Great environment! Truly recommend. http://www.auroville.org/

Well, have many international friends and acquaintances already. Won't be alone, don't you worry!
Lots and lots of love, feeling good, starting work tomorrow.

Olá! Tudo bem? Deve ser muito gira, essa cidade! Tou cheia de saudades tuas! Boa sorte para o trabalho amanhã! Olha, não recebia a tua mensagem, mas a tia disse-me que mandaste. Obrigada! O exame correu-me mais ou menos, enganei-me nalgumas coisas. Muitos beijinhos e boa sorte para amanhã!

Meniniha, gostei do jeito que escreve... vai virar leitura constante. :)

escreva mesmo! faz muita diferença, essa experiência maluca fica ainda mais gravada. Quando a gente coloca no papel (ou no blog), paramos pra pensar no que aconteceu, tiramos conclusões e isso faz muito bem.

não deixe de escrever!

bjinho!
