Experience volunteering with IVHQ

For my first solo trip, I'd decided to make it a meaningful one by volunteering with IVHQ and it has got to be one of the best decisions that I've made! From planning my trip to my arrival in Bali, everything were smooth-sailing as IVHQ would carefully list the things that I'd have to do and know prior to my trip. Although there were some skeptics about the program, after meeting the team at Green Lion, I felt reassured that it was going to be a wonderful trip and it really was!

I participated in the kindergarten program and although I would only interact with the kids for 2 hours each day, it was the highlight of my whole trip. Being able to speak bahasa is definitely an advantage as I was able to connect with the kids faster and execute the lesson in a way they could understand. The only thing I regret was that it was only for a week. It was bittersweet leaving the kids and Bali so soon but I know that I would be back again!
