Visitors from Belarus

    On Tuesday the 3rd of March our organization hosted guests from Belarus, the President and the members of the organization of “BELAU”. This is the sending organization of Iryna. Iryna met them near the Royal Palace and brought to and from the office. She can tell us how difficult it was…

“ Iryna: Well, I can’t say that really difficult, but a stressful, due to the two main reasons. On one hand, I didn’t know the city at all, and was novice in the Stockholm transport system either. On the other hand, the visitors didn’t know the city either, so it was a challenge how to find exact understandable place for both sides to meet. Thus, with the help of Kristina, Project Manager from Framtidståget , and via contacting to BelAU group, I managed to meet the group near the Royal Palace, bring them to the office, and later to take them to the ferry. Luckily, the day before the BelAU visit me and Meko had travelled to the port and discovered the right directions to get to and from it. “

During the meeting, guests saw the office, met staff and our boss Yousef, found out more information about the work of Framtidståget. Also, they had a short presentation about their organization. Some plans for future were discussed. The meeting was introductory and informal with lunch (prepared by me and Kristina)

The guests left us a letter in our guest book.

The cooperation between Framtidståget and BELAU started a couple of years ago and is promising to be more and more successful in the future.
