Volunteer's Story

Incredible!!! It was one of the best experience of my life!!!!! I strongly recommend to everybody! I took part in the gap year expedition that was six week program. I worked for five weeks in project for street kids and travelled on every weekends. After that, we travelled for one week and we visited amazing places and went trekking on the Himalaya. All the programs are well structured and organized! For the first 5 weeks I taught math and English to 3 to 5 years old street kidz. Dealing with very young students is not easy but is extremely rewarding and is a very intense emotion! The travel period was well organized and we did exactly what was stated in the program on the website. There are no words that can properly describe this experience!! - Kristen Vanrans, Germany
