Last week was Global Youth Service Day where partners from around the world organized a plethora of volunteer projects with the single goal of making the world a better place. (Its cheesy, I know but its still an admiral goal)
American Councils organized many projects in Bosnia, and in Sarajevo YES Abroad and YES Alumni banded together to clean up Bijela Tabija or The White Fortress which is this beautiful monument that overlooks Sarajevo. In recent years though, the monument has been kind of trashed by graffiti and well, trash. Last Saturday we tried to improve the situation a bit by cleaning it up. You would not believe what some people leave behind. At the end of the afternoon though we had filled up every trash bag we'd brought with us so I'd say it was a job well done.
