amazing week

and im back from my week of wonderful



so when i first heard about the aforementioned volunteer trip, i thought it would be an awesome way to do something great and useful during my holidays

what i didn't realise was what an impact 36 young adults can make on a community, whether it be planting 400 tree saplings or beautifying a health centre or moving TEN TONNES of mulch in such a small amount of time.
i didn't realise how much fun the bus trips would be, where we danced (and sang) to justin bieber in the aisles, as well as participated in bus idol AND bonded with the best bus driver ever!
i didn't realise how much we would bond as a team and friends and i know i've made lifelong friendships
i didn't realise the withdrawal symptoms i would have, particularly not being surrounded by 35 others when trying to sleep
i didn't realise just how much i would love it.


i hope each and every one of you gets a chance to participate in something this amazing.


love love
