10/10 Experience

I had never traveled somewhere without my parents before. I was nervous to say the least. Global Works welcomed in our group with open arms and I feel as if everyone was able to have a great experience from there. Making concrete for houses was awesome because you get to know the other people who you are working with. It was also satisfying to see that we were making differences in people's lives. The experiences outside of service were also really cool and stuff you wouldn't see just sitting at home.

What was the most nerve-racking moment and how did you overcome it?
I almost mixed my hand in with the concrete when I dumped the cement in too hard .
