Czech NTT chairing expansion to Poland - Hana's experience

My friend from CEEMOS 2007 faci team, Aga Jeszke, invited me before summer to come to Wroclaw to chair at their Local Committee Conference, LCC 2007 of AIESEC Polska Komitet Lokalny Politechnika Wrocławska.
Well, it went more serious :-) when traveling through whole Czech Republic to Wroclaw. I had the chance to meet facis (=EB) 2 days before the conference started, got to know Kay (Australia) who was OCP of LCC, met few more OC members (Kamila - great job, girl!, Slim - "just" French-Arabic speaking Tunisian trainee). At the venue when delegates started to arrive I realised actually what my role was... pretty soon :-) Seriously, you are there to guide the people through the plenary times, to chat with some of them during the coffee breaks and lunch times, to think of who of them will be the next leading body of the LC in few years, to manage some alumni at their workshops, etc.

To share one of my personal highlights of the conference, I think of the night of global village I spent around 2 hours in the dining hall with Masaru (Japanese trainee), Slim (Tunisian trainee) and Źyrafka (Polish AIESEC member). Masaru talked interesting stuff about his country, wrote some caligraphy posters for us and all seemed to be so nice - just 4 different nationalities from 3 different continets under one roof at one table in one small house in Poland somewhere at the border with Czech Republic... then you think of the peace that is possible to reach when respecting each other.

I had the chance to see how looked local conference in different country and realised we were all the same around the globe. Nice. :-)
