I. Show us an activity you enjoy doing. Tell us how you think it contributes your personal and professional development.

Some people try many things to find peace, relax and clear their minds by different ways. Yoga, meditation, work out and so on... For me the best way to find peace , freedom, relax and find myself is walking through the nature. I really enjoy doing this activity. Leaving the city behind and get into the nature for me is like meditation, yoga and work out. In that way I can concéntrate myself and I think freely.

I enjoy discovering new places, fields, woods, rivers, lakes and ect…Listening to the silence helps me to feel that I am part of this nature.

Sometimes I do this activity just because I enjoy it and sometimes I need to do it.When I am tired, stressed and I can not find the way to resolve my problems and challenges, I go to the countryside and I walk, walk, walk and think and it helps me to find the answers.

How it contributes my professional and personal development?First of all, this activity is very healthy, it develops my body, my soul and my brain.Walking through the woods or swimming in the river (lake or sea), being away from the polluted air of the city , breathing the fresh air are things that develops the body.Listening to the silence or listening to the sounds of the nature makes me calm, it erases the negative things in my brain. I feel empty and therefore I feel strength and powerful for doing new things.I think that being near the nature develops also the personality. I mean, if a person feels and realises that we are part of this world, if a person loves the nature it gives an opportunity to have more responsibility of defending and taking care what we have in front of us.

And now about professional developing.As I chose MARKRTING RESEARCH AND CONSUMER BEHAVIOUR and VISUAL AND DIGITAL MEDIA for my future profession, it is very important to be creative and have different visions.Walking through the nature is not only an activity that gives me peace or helps me to think freely, it also helps me to develop my visions and abilities of making creative things. For example I always take photos or record videos while I am walking. It is easy to find a picturesque views in countryside. Taking the photos of the sun rise or sun set, green fields or fields of gold, obviously there are a lot of beautiful things to focus .

Making videos is very funny and interesting, recording some animals doing things gives an opportunity to observe them and during this process I find out many interesting details. My opinion is that the nature is the best creator, there create things in a natural way and I think, we have to listen to its lessons and learn how to be more creative.
