2. My ESC
My volunteering gave me an
amazing experience. I've
discovered new culture. I met
many people and made
friends. I improved my skills. I
became part of the
volunteering movement. I
learned new language. I
responded to the unexpected
challenges. It was the great
opportunity.

3. My City - Rybnik
Rybnik is a city in
southwestern Poland, in the
Silesian Voivodeship. The
city first developed as a
fishing center in the Middle
Ages, hence the name of the
city alludes to the trade.
Rybnik then grew as an
important center of coal
mining and the seat of the
surrounding county in the
19th century.

4. My Host Organization
Industrial Centre of Culture was
founded in 1955. This center
organizes exhibitions, concerts,
dance games, film screenings,
meetings with interesting people and
many other events for local
community.
