Involvement Volunteers International The work we had to do was very interesting, and all the people I met, whether volunteers or part of the team, were incredible encounters that can change a life. The interaction with the villagers was amazing. Highlight: Our group of volunteers has already planned to meet again this year in Paris. Relationships like these, formed in such a short time, can only happen in this kind of environment.
Comments on local team, food and accommodation
The local team is incredible. They do everything to make sure we feel comfortable, and they are very endearing (it was very hard to say goodbye at the end of the stay). As for the food, I discovered the local Asian cuisine, and I couldn’t get enough of it. The cook was so talented, even with the often-repeated ingredients. Regarding the accommodation, everything was comfortable for sleeping. One evening, the air conditioning stopped working, but the team provided me with a fan and made sure to replace it as quickly as possible. Taking a shower was a bit challenging at first because we’re not used to the method, but you quickly adapt, and it becomes very enjoyable after a good day’s work.
Any improvements to help us be better?
I don’t really have any suggestions for improvement because everyone on-site does everything they can to make sure we feel comfortable.
