I've spent my summer in thailand and india with the organisation volunteering solutions. And i have to say, my summer was amazing! India as a country really surprised me. I didn't know there were so many beautiful buildings, temples and castles! During the summer program, i had the chance to visit a lot of them and still i'm not satisfied, I want to see more! :D

I'm happy that I visit india through volunteering solutions. For me India was a far away country which I would never just go visit by myself. I was very pleased with the organisation. I was picked up at the airport. The accommodations where we stayed where always nice. I loved the house in Delhi, the hotels during traveling were amazing and the volunteer house in Palampur, especially build for volunteers, was really nice too!

There was a lot of variety during the summer program. First we where in Delhi for a week, where i volunteered in a school for street children. This one is actually my best experience. Working with this children was amazing. You will realize, once you go there yourself! The second we traveld to different cities like jaipur and agra. Definitely worth visiting! In the third week we traveled to dharamsala for hiking. This was probably my second favorite experience. The view was awesome, and I would never have done this without the guidance of the organisation. Our last days we spent volunteering in a school in palampur. A small town in the mountains.

if you like working with children and want to learn about the indian culture, i can definitely recommend this program! If you are interested to see some pictures, you can also take a look at my fotoblog: https://dreamgoanddiscover.wordpress.com/
