我在這個(gè)夏天參加了AIESEC海外志愿者活動(dòng),去到了摩洛哥的海邊城市丹吉爾。之所以選擇摩洛哥一開始是因?yàn)榭戳艘徊棵锌ㄋ_布蘭卡的電影,這部電影的故事背景發(fā)生在摩洛哥,通過電影里的場(chǎng)景和網(wǎng)上一些游客的照片我覺得摩洛哥這個(gè)國家的風(fēng)景很美,加上我之前并未去過非洲旅游,那里有著我從未感受過的風(fēng)土人情,便決定去摩洛哥做志愿者。 后來,事實(shí)證明我的選擇是正確的,因?yàn)槟β甯缤跏襾碇袊L問后決定對(duì)中國公民免簽的政策,省去了我遞材料辦簽證等一系列麻煩事兒。
但是語言問題是令我十分困擾的,在摩洛哥英語并不普及,大家說的都是阿拉伯語,也有人會(huì)說法語或者西班牙語,但是會(huì)英語的真的很少,所以和當(dāng)?shù)厝说臏贤ɑ旧隙伎拷M里會(huì)說阿拉伯語的埃及妹子,這一點(diǎn)也對(duì)我們進(jìn)行社會(huì)調(diào)研產(chǎn)生了很大的阻礙。當(dāng)?shù)刂袊慰鸵膊欢?,所以每次出門在路上都會(huì)有各種各樣的人盯著你看。
至于我參加的項(xiàng)目,名叫“Youth speak”。這個(gè)項(xiàng)目不同于支教、去養(yǎng)老院等大多數(shù)志愿項(xiàng)目,它的內(nèi)容主要是針對(duì)摩洛哥當(dāng)?shù)氐膯栴}做一些社會(huì)調(diào)研,目的是讓青年人敢于發(fā)表自己的看法并一起努力使這個(gè)世界變得更好。我們項(xiàng)目一共三十多人,被TN方分成了四組,基本上組內(nèi)每個(gè)人都來自不同的國家,(很神奇的是每個(gè)國家說英語都有著不同的口音,有的很好懂,有的卻基本聽不出是英語,233)。每個(gè)組選不同的主題設(shè)計(jì)問卷再進(jìn)行社會(huì)調(diào)查。其實(shí),這個(gè)項(xiàng)目還挺無趣的,因?yàn)槌送獬稣{(diào)查的日子,大多數(shù)時(shí)間都是大家聚在咖啡館設(shè)計(jì)問卷、寫report、剪輯視頻、管理facebook頁面。
比較有趣的時(shí)間是每周末大家一起去旅游的時(shí)候,大家一起坐火車或是大巴一起去摩洛哥的各個(gè)城市游玩。
I could make a long list about the worse things that happen to me through this summer. Credit cards stuck in ATM, showering with jug of bottle for 4 days, ate fast food for a whole week, catcalled by local every single time going out, and many other things.But despite all of that, I am more than grateful to have such a wonderful and amazing team that support me and I could recall as a family.
The sharing, the laughter, the trips, the forever waiting, language classes, deep talking under the shooting stars, lovely time in Benidorm, and especially the people that been there in all of my ups and downs through this project are my treasure in this volunteer experience. Thank you, to all of our team that when I look back to my days in Morocco now, the bad memories somehow turns to be funny and I can only remember the good memories and the laughters we shared.
