Amazing volunteering experience. Go for it. No regrets!

A career break, is a big change, a big step in life. I felt I needed to find more sense, to start giving instead of continuously being in a 'taking mode' - as you can be in most of Western countries. Therefore, I decided to come to Bali and to attend the VP Bali volunteering program in Ubud. It has been a great experience for me: not only for the inspiring and peculiar location of Ubud and Bali in general, but specially for the involvement with the local people and the community. On the one hand you teach English,but on the other you help kids and local villages to get scholarships and to adapt to different type of people (and accents) as teachers are from all over the world. You really feel you can make the difference!! Playing with the kids, singing with them, praise them is a 'two-way' exchange which I will never forget and that no words / written review will ever explain, indeed. You should just go for it!!!!
