Worthwhile Experience

Personally I grew a lot on this trip and was blessed to see my work’s impact more immediately because of the flood work. This was an excellent way to immerse myself into the local customs and community in Chiang Rai and feel more connected through working closely with other staff and volunteers, as well as the community you are helping. I found it really important to be flexible because you are there to help with a system that is already set up and the staff know what they are doing and different cultures and circumstances will make the work look different than how it does in your home country. Being flexible allowed me to grow and experience more :)
