The WAPPY Training Course was a real eye-opener for me, so I\u2019m sure that I won\u2019t be happy with how I explain my experience.<\/p>\n

Being a technician, I was ready for long sessions in the classroom and for developing applications, but the learning by doing<\/em> approach allowed me to discover (and rediscover) my\u00a0 skills.<\/p>\n

My learning method has always been in line with my technical education, involving an excessively logical approach to tackling problems. This can limit creativity, but I rediscovered some of my innate skills thanks to the input of the various workshops.<\/p>\n

Communicating strictly in English was a huge task for me, forming sentences on the spot with only the few foreign words I knew best and using non-verbal communication to help. But so many times I discovered how nice it is for someone to anticipate my words or complete my partially-expressed concepts.<\/p>\n

Both for mine and my group\u2019s creations, I forced myself to use only non-digital tools. This was the glue that held the group together and it was a creative push for everyone thanks to their cooperation.<\/p>\n

Everyone gained something through the diversity.<\/p>\n

In such a short amount of time, my surroundings literally expanded my mind; the different realities, places, cultures, religions, types of food and culinary habits, communication styles, and discovering the similarities and differences of everything.<\/p>\n

I feel smaller now, almost as if the place I\u2019m living in has shrunk. I view the borders of my country as insignificant, I feel like a \u201ccitizen of the world\u201d.<\/p>\n

I was personally back in the game; I was working with my idea, encouraging it, making it catchy, getting volunteer collaborators and working together with my peers. I was using the consensus of my volunteer collaborators to be guided or to help decide the development phases; and finally, gaining recognition for our hard work. It was an experience that has launched me ahead.<\/p>\n

The human experience was the added value of this training; the pleasure of sharing, the active participation of everyone, the joy of being involved first hand; it was an everlasting learning experience.<\/p>\n

After this, the desire to set up an entrepreneurship was spontaneously born.<\/p>\n
