Feb 4th 2011

This week has been really cool. We went to campus on Tuesday and passed out coffee. It was really cool when we first started there was a girl that came up. She stayed and talked for a while then three of her friends came. It was really awesome talking to them. So we are going to try and meet up with them.
Today my friend Tiffany and I went to the gypsy village with Yana to see if we could help Yana. It was amazing to see what Yana had been doing with them. She has about four teens she has been teaching Greek to. She has been doing such a great job. You can tell the kids really respect her. You could tell they really wanted to learn from her. It was cool because they sang a song with her and they really loved it. We will probably go back with her to help with the younger kids. I definitely need to work on my Greek! It was so eye opening to see their living conditions. They were worse then what I had seen in Skopje. Their stories are just heartbreaking. It is cool though that Yana and the crew she is working with are making a difference.
