Saurabh Gandhi : A new day, a new challenge. We were walking from the office towards the school for our session on Monday and then suddenly my partner from Singapore asked us that if we can change the presentation style – instead of we suggesting the environmental problems, it was them who will write at flip charts.
With just one hour before the session, this sounded a bit weird but looking at her confidence level about new style of presenting, I had to agree. This is what makes me happy about working in AIESEC…it gives chance to challenge yourself every minute and at the same time also enables you to be flexible.
The session were delivered as per new plan. The changes were made only in our sessions and not the whole strategy.
As usual, while returning from the school, there were heated arguments…lolz…but I feel these things help us know our team better. We ended up going to a shopping mall together and then to skyline bar. Later in night we were watching movie together. 
There is no such thing called perfect team, unless you have been through all this. I am seriously proud of my team.
While watching movie, I was thinking of the day it was…specially the concert and student participation – was mind blowing and out of the world. I have never seen so pro-active and participating students. This was really a nice experience.
Riga is done. Our bags are packed. We are now ready for our journey to Daugavpils…
Alina Rusu: it’s so cool to be part of this project, because every day, every school, every person you meet is a new discovery and a new challenge for me. Rīgas 10.vidussskola reminded me of my first school, my first learning experience, my first teachers, chemistry and phisycs classes 
Even the walls and the taste of the “kompot” in the cafeteria were so familiar, that by the end of our visit, I didn’t want to leave
The sessions were interesting and some solutions were really cool! There were some fantastic ones also, like the electronic bug who whould clean the land but that is great also, because, as Eistein said, if the ideaa doesn’t sound crazy, than it’s not worth trying. So keep trying, guys, and I’m confident that together we can bring the change in the world 
Genevieve: Hello! Rigas 10. vidussskola is a meaningful experience that concluded our visit to schools in Riga well. It was a combination of many factors.
For one, as Saurabh said, I am really learning to challenge myself, to think how we can work better – for the students and for us both as we have different styles that we are used to. Ultimately, i hoped that the small change allowed the students to think more for themselves about Latvia’s environment that they are more knowledgeable in. We were not there to lecture but to create awareness. The students were attentive to our lessons but our team is working to improve our lessons to make it really different and even more enjoyable than it is now. So hold on!
Secondly, I was glad that we were shown around the school’s gym, classrooms etc to get acquainted with the students and also to the concert that they invited us to see. It was realli enriching and of course, the quality of the performances amazed me. It was a mini yet great eye-opening experience to the music in Europe! And the day ended differently with the four of us relaxing in the city’s centre. After some shopping that i missed and good coffee from a very good view with my team, I feel I can work even better with them despite our difficulties=) So Daugavpils forward we go!!!!
Ana Marija: I agree with Alina- every school, every person that we meet is different and therefore they have their own ideas, way of thinking and way of approaching environmental issues. It was enriching to see how different people react differently and come up with new and creative ideas. The significant things from the last five schools that I’ll cherish are constructive criticisms from all sessions and seeing what we are doing good and what we can improve! That’s our point guys, good job!
Now we are heading to the next five schools in Daugavpils and I wonder how are gonna look like new sessions with new participants.. The unknown and new- I like
Good bye Riga, hello Daugavpils
(God knows…they were more tired when they returned…lolz). But Seriously, they needed a break and I am happy to see them all charged up. Although they gel extremely well with each other, but these kinds of activities are good for team building. I had a lot of work and to catch up with pending tasks, I decided to stay on internet.
