Sharing Love

My name is Bruna, I'm 20 years old, and I live in São Paulo-Brazil.
When I was 16 years old, I got sick and spent a week in a hospital. I was very sad, but one day, two men dressed of clowns showd up and made laugh and smile. After that, I decided to do the same, so I was volunteer for 2 years in a nursery for pour babies and children until 6 years old. It was amazing, but I had to stop because of university and internship (I study law). So I decided to help people during my holidays, to do something bigger, like sharing love in another country. But, would be my first abroad traveling by my own, so I didn't want a country in a such delicated situation. I also wanted to practice my english, and, of obviusly, meet a wonderful place, that's why I chosed South Africa, and thanks God I did, because it was one of best things that happened in my life. I helped children, I made many friends from many countries in the word (in holstel I stayed, had parties in the fire evernight, with many tourists), I tasted different food, saw the most beautiful animals, and learned much english!
I worked in a school for children in Soweto, township of Johannesburg from 7am until 1 pm. In that school I taught little things of english for children of 5 years old, like colors and shapes. That children were so grateful, lovely and warm!
After 1pm, and during the weekend, I was free to meet the country, to go to parties, bars, barbecues, rugby game, museums, safaris, restaurants, it was so funny!
I had a lot of support of employees from holstel (Lebo's Soweto Backpagers, whith had the best food ever, by the way), of teachers from school and of people of the program.
I grew up a lot after this 17 days, and I will take this memories and experiencies with me for the rest of my life.
