During my ESC volunteering at İlk Sen Ol Association, I had a highly productive and active experience. In my first days, I joined an orienteering sports activity as part of European Youth Week, and soon after, I participated in the GSB fight against addiction event. I took on tasks such as designing a booklet for the "YES" project, taking photos during our two mosque visits for the "Digital Generations" project, and editing YouTube and Instagram videos using DaVinci Resolve.
Additionally, I supported newly arrived volunteers by helping them with daily needs like getting their Istanbulkart. On other days I usually take part as photographer, videographer and editor of visual contents of the organisation. our days in the office were incredibly fun, filled with never stopping laughter everyday there was something going on, it was a good time that i had.
