One month was not enough

I chose Nepal because I wanted to go to a social proyect that had an emphasis on public health. After researching more about the country I realized it also has amazing views and hikes, an amazing culture and delicious food!

Nepal is an amazing country that opens its heart to everyone that visits it. GVI Nepal is not the exception. Every one of the staff members are amazing and day to day it’s fun and full of experiences, from the schools we go to, to the transportation, the food, the scinery, wating every morning to see if the mountains would show up and give us the spectacular view of the Himalais. I had the opportunity to work with the children but also to do 2-3 days of women empowerment. Both very diferent and challenging in its own way.

The children from the school are full of energy and welcoming, always wanting to play and high five, also willing to learn specialy when the classes have some kind of dynamic. The women where amazing. Super powerful to see so many women wanting to learn English for different reasons like to be able to help their children in school, to open their own business among others.

Also all the other volunteers where so nice, and I definitely was able to create new friends and experiences with them. Also the staff is really welcoming, arranging diferent meetups so we could interact with each other generating a very nice environment within the base and between the diferent volunteers.

Nepal was amazing, 1 month was not enough.
