Loved it and did not want to leave

I loved the program I did, however we had a few problems with the local orphanage staff, as it appeared that we were not wanted there, and were essentially overstepping boundries. The children were great, and we had a lot of freedom to interact with them and do activities with them. Or course you get what you put into it. The second part of my placement, was more what I was interested in, and was very interesting being involved in the day to day running of program, as we had local staff input, but the majority of time, we had the freedom to implement project which we thought would be beneficial. Hosusing was basic but provided us with the necesseties, and the other volunteers were great, there was always something going on every night.
