SERM 2017

09/03/2019

Hello to our dear SERM enthusiasts, once again!

Guess what?
2 years ago, we had a mission - to gather a bunch of people from different countries, unite them all, teach them something about forestry, about Bulgaria, and by the end of it - to have made new and great friends. We thought that hosting SERM 2017 would be the way to do it... and it turned out IT WAS.
But another part of this mission, was to invite others who might be a bit off the radar and that we have not heard from them in a while around IFSA events. One of those, were the students from LC AFK - Zurich,Switzerland. Only one member of them came to our event, and apparently got inspired but wasnt quite ready yet to try such a thing, and how about this - 2 years later this member sparked up the idea in the LC and now we have SERM 2019 Switzerland happening! FOR REAL

Registrations have just opened, and trust us - no better place to go on a forestry trip than Switzerland, and no better motivated team to host it than the one from LC AFK.

Grab your spot quick ;)

Its been a few years, but we still think about you and we still love you all, dear participants. Hope life is treating you well!

With love,
Your Bulgarian OC

Hello hello!
Its time for another short vid :))

This one is a special video in honor of our dear friend Amir from Iran, who got approved for SERM 2017 and was ready to come, but sadly in the last moment he couldn't.
But what he did do, was send us OC some Iranian goods to try (around 2 kilos of them actually)!?
This was a perfect opportunity for us to do a spontaneous OC gathering and just catch up on how we are doing.
For a good atmosphere and treat, we had a variety of assorted nuts (which Emil keeps calling cashews for some reason :D) and some sweets called Gaz (nougat, honeydew and pistachios) - we loved them all and none is left, sorry...

Again a big thanks to you, dear Amir!

As for all other IFSA friends - Wishing you a calm and sweet Sunday!
Much love from us, your Bulgarian OC!

Lets start the week with something special...
A breathtaking performance by our lovely OC member Iana Gocheva, from the International Night.
We thought it deserves its own traditional bulgarian folklore spotlight.
You can find it on this link:

Enjoy the beautiful voice of our dear Iana! We love you!
