EVS in Pomiechówek

Hello everyone! Some weeks ago two volunteers from the SPW organization visited me in the  library and interviewed me about my different tasks and activities there. They made pictures and filmed me while I showed them around the library.

To the video! Have an amazing week and until next time!
