Alumni Spotlight: Asimina Kosti-Stavri

I picked this program mainly because I liked its flexibility. As I am still a student and I have school, I could not be missing for more than a week. I also liked the place a lot, as well as the variety of activities the program offers.

In my opinion going abroad in necessary in order to become a complete person. You don't just learn, but you also live in a place totally different from yours. Knowing new cultures and seeing different sceneries is essential and adorable!

I would probably give two advices to someone going in the program I went to. First of all to bring a lot of donations because the kids are really in need of them and they would get really happy (toys and games in general are preferred). The second advice I would give to someone following my program is to be prepared to get exhausted but probably more satisfied than ever before!

Really, I don't think there is a specific one, every day there was different and unique! What was very funny during all the days, is that the kids could not stop touching and braiding my long blond hair.

Really a lot! Considering that I went by myself, meaning without other kids which may have also joined this organization. Only the kids I met were around 300, plus the teachers in the school, the ladies in the orphanage... MANY people and all of them cheerful, helpful, and unforgettable!
