This volunteer experience was undoubtedly one of the most beautiful and interesting experiences of my life. the organization Family has welcomed me from the beginning as one of the team, offering me a comfortable home and food. The perfect working hours, and free weekends to visit beautiful places. The children at the organization is adorable and you end up loving them, although you must be patient. You can develop activities with them and help them improve their abilities, together with the co-workers, the teachers who are charming and always willing to help. In short, an unforgettable experience

I felt a good bond with the teachers and students. Many of the students participated in ball games like toss and catch, volleyball, basketball, and soccer. They also responded well when I played uke and sang for them. My host, Auviili, was great about making sure I got 3 meals a day and taking me to the bus station. I loved the send off I got The bed I slept on I believe is typical of beds in India but but a steel bench with a thin pad was hard for me to get much sleep on. The only window that had a screen was in my room so mosquitos came in even with the door shut.
