I can also be helpful during the activities with my computer and creative skills. For one and
half years [="For 1-1/2 years", "For a year and a half"] , I worked in a cultural association as web editor. I wrote reviews of new album releases, acted as a liaison with artistes and event organizers, as well as being an interviewer and pollster for the events. In the meantime, I learnt how to use Wordpress, SEO and Photoshop. I am also good with Ffilm shooting/editing, in fact I can use Windows Movie Maker.

I also have in-depth knowledge of MS Office and the Internet. I also worked for six months for an online magazine, where I was a web editor in the socio-cultural section and since a this past week [or "as of last week"], I hadve finished [=completed] a three-months internship in an eCommerce&Marketing company in Berlin.

As for creative abilities, I love to write and draw. Ever Ssince I was young, I have participated to in a lot of contests. One of my short stories was published on a website and when while I was at the secondary school, I organized with my teacher and my classmates an exhibition of our works.

Being an EVS volunteer would allow me to gain even more knowledge and experience
and a foothold into the type of work I have always dreamt about: to connect every form of creativity with the respect of to different cultures and the environment. It would be very exciting for me to contribute in such a great, lifelong learning project. I think that everyday we must concentrate our efforts towards being active citizen of the EUu {European Union?}.

By knowing how to respect the nature and to love arts, would lifein general -- and perhaps even the entire world -- would* become a better place for all of us and for the future generations.

I hope that you would consider me as the right candidate.

I look forward to our future co-operation

*I added some verbiage here to temper the tone because it sounds awkward (and a bit pompous) to just have "life and world" here. :)

My computer and organisational  skills would also benefit the activities of the association ( company, organisation).  I have worked for over a year as the web editor for a cultural association.  I wrote reviews of new album releases and acted as a liason with artists and event organizers.  I also conducted interviews and polls for association events.  In my work I learned to use Wordpress, SEO and Photoshop.  I am skilled at film shooting and editing with Windows Movie Maker.

I also have in-depth knowledge of MS Office and the internet.  I worked for six months at an online magazine, where I was a web editor in the socio-cultural section.  I have recently completed a three month internship in an ecommerce and marketing company in Berlin.

As for creative abilities, I love to write and draw.  Since I was young I have participated in many contests.    One of my short stories was published on a website and at secondary school I organised an exhibition of student artwork with my teacher.

Being an EVS volunteer would allow me to gain even more knowledge and experience, and to gain a foothold into the type of work I have always dreamed of: to connect creative activities with the respect for different cultures and the environment.  It would be very exciting for me to be involved in such a great lifelong learning project.  I also believe we can further this effort by concentrating our efforts on being active citizens of the EU.

With greater respect for nature and love of the arts, life will become a better place for all of us and for future generations.

I hope that you will consider me as the right candidate and I look forward to our future co-operation.

:).  Good luck!!!!
