Feelings From NLDS

By Shubhangi Faujdar

It has been over a month now, but I can still feel the passion, I can still hear the roll calls, the AIESEC songs…. such was the charisma of NLDS 2006!!!!

The experience is inexplicable but the one word I could find to describe it is ‘unparalleled’. The sessions, the arguments, the dances, the roll calls, the chit chats here and there, and a lot more made the seminar all the more memorable. For a newbie (like myself), it was exciting to have an event having about 100 delegates from countries like Indonesia, India, Malaysia, Thailand, Taiwan, Korea and Japan.

This was perhaps, the first time that I realized the power of AIESEC. Someone had told me earlier that the World is small, and AIESEC makes it even smaller. It was NLDS that made me realize and even live that fact. Though there were a lot of learning sessions by which we all benefited a lot, the best thing which NLDS has done to me is introducing me to amazing people with whom I am still in touch. It is surprising to see how well people from completely different backgrounds and cultures can mingle with each other. That’s the power of AIESEC, creating a World without Boundaries….
