It was my first experience as a volunteer and it was unbeatable. Both in host and workers and children are really excellent, you work very hard for the social and cultural well-being, the well-being and total education of the children! I've learned a lot with them. I have been taken care of like one more, we have traveled and visited many places, I can only say thank you!!! I adore you all and I know I'll be back!! Thank you very much for the experience!! 🥰♥️♥️♥️♥️
