The week at Rechberg was really nice and the last camp was a really cool
experience, but all in all I can't say that it changed my life or my
opinion. I learned a lot about different cultures and about the problems
in Israel, but the sad thing is that I didn't learn to find solutions for
problems!! Sure, probably the camp was a little step to peace but for me
it seemed like The Jewish and Arab people talked against a wall. Nobody
really talked with someone- everybody was just talking against someone
else. Everybody has his or her opinion, and of course that's good but if
you really want to understand other people you don't have to talk all the
time and tell everybody what you think, first of all you have to listen to
the other part. It seemed like nobody really tried to form a new opinion,
all just wanted to protect their own ones!! But that's just my point of
view....
There was also a lot of work and stress at the last camp but I really
cant's say if it would have been better without the whole discussions,
excursions and workshops. All in all the last peacecamp was really nice
and if there should be a next peace camp in Austria one day it should be
like the last one!!
I am really looking forward to the time in Israel. I hope that I will see
a lot of the country and it will be also great to meet the members of the
camp again. Just to be in Israel and see how people live there will be a
wonderful experience.
And what will be my personal contribution?? Well, I really don't know..I
think the only thing I can try to do is being a good guest...
