Staying in Cehegín with all the team members and other volunteers for 3 months has been a transformative experience for me, as they created a new learning opportunity every day. I have learned more in 3 months than I have in 3 years :) Besides working and learning, we also have fun together and play a lot of games or watch movies together! Of course, I also had my challenges, but the important thing is that everyone is committed to helping you grow and become a better person, which means stepping out of your comfort bubble and being open to learning something new!

This could be peaceful countryside for personal growth but in my experience on my third day I was told that they saw Worldpackers as a “colonial system” and that after 10 days I would be expected to behave as a full member of the community. Despite my efforts to adapt, I was consistently met with coldness and judgment. Communication was unclear, and when I asked about my work schedule after waiting a reasonable amount of time, I was spoken to in a dismissive manner:)The situation escalated when two members raised their voices at me for minutes, and I decided to leave the project early.

Eda stayed briefly as a volunteer. While polite in tasks, she developed an intense fixation on another volunteer, repeatedly demanding his removal despite no misconduct. She raised her voice at team members when confronted and was quite hysterical, creating tension in the group. To enforce fairness and protect the community, we had to respond firmly. Eda ultimately chose to leave. Reflection on separating emotions from facts would benefit her in future group settings as she struggled with this.

Overall , it wasn't a bad volunteer experience. I found that it could of been a fun, interesting, and very unorthodox way of learning and improving on the self . But unorthodox it very was for me as I come a from a more sun up yo sun down strict regiment. These personalities did clash a bit but not so much that things couldn't of been sorted out. However, there definitely seemed to be a conflict in interests and perspectives that it just ended in my early dismissal from the group. I have my own criticizing biases but it's good program for anyone open to just relax and learn.
