Valentina Malec
DOB: 18th October 1984, Sarajevo
BEFORE THE WAR:
"Happy faces, town bathed in sun, long walks in nature, visiting museums, Japanese cherry blosom, warm Christmas, my grandmother..."
DURING THE WAR:
"fear, bombs, granades, school at my home, lots of people baking bread in kitchen at my home, going for water, but I also remember people being close and ready to help any time"
WHAT YOU MOST WANT TO LEARN, SEE, DO:
"First of all I want to finish my University successfully, but my biggest wish is to help people, specially children without parents and children from Africa with their education, I can't say yet, but I'm pretty sure that in future I'll have possibility to make that wish true. I would also like to travel (specially to visit Egypt and India), to meet new cultures to learn new languages and to learn new traditions. I can say that writing is also part of my plans..."
A MESSAGE FOR PEOPLE OUTSIDE BOSNIA:
"It's easy to hurt people,
it's easy to hate,
it's easy to hurt,
it's easy to find reason for war...
it's hard to heal wounds,
it's hard to make people smile,
it's hard to love, no matter what,
the hardest thing is to forgive and to forget
and it seems that it's hard to find reason for peace...
Let's not be lazy to do things that are hard to do,why don't we all work harder and why don't we do something nice for other people..."
