My experience at the temple the organization exceeded all my expectations. I felt at home from the minute I arrived. Being there was like being part of a big family and it was a real privilege for me to collaborate with the team by sharing ideas and creating content for such a beautiful community. I am very grateful for this opportunity and I highly recommend to all the worldpackers to come and have a once in a lifetime experience. Thank you all !! :)
