Last Sunday I'm back well from a very beautiful and returned especially busy week.
started this on Monday with the final 5-day seminar for 40 volunteers from Argentina, Uruguay and Paraguay. The seminar was held in Baradero, 3 hours bus ride north of Buenos Aires. It was on the one hand about the experiences and impressions of each individual spoke during the year and discussed, on the other about personal development and how to weiterverfährt now in Germany with the experience gained.
It was definitely very interesting and has brought a much, apart from that we spent many fun evenings.
Friday night I'm still with another volunteer Buenos Aires moved into his flat. After an elegant evening, I accompanied him Saturday morning with his project, which is located in "Villa Itatí", the second largest slum of Buenos Aires. This was once a really hard blow, as to run through ...
on an estimated area of about 800 by 1500 meters that 50 000 (!) People. The dwellings are often not even made of plywood, but cardboard and plastic bags. The floor is completely covered with garbage. There are no sewage systems so that the sewage flow easily on the way and there further rinsed in a reduction in rain, where a large pond / swamp is.
children run around barefoot on piles of garbage, or play football. Everywhere, emaciated dogs search the trash for something to eat. In some corners there are
smoking teenagers who Pako. A new, cheap drug waste, the emaciated people and eventually brings death.
These images were once again really awesome, despite all the poverty I've seen this year already and it took me a while before I had processed it.
my camera I for safety and decency reasons, have not moved, but I have some pictures from a very poor area where I had some time ago, the approximate times at least one Impression of living conditions mediated. I am the volunteer who works at the Villa Itatí still ask for pictures I'll upload them in the coming days.
