Amazing Experience

Review
Not knowing what to expect when I arrived in Romania, I was shocked to discover how sociable and open the children were in developing new friendships with a complete stranger. The language barrier did not stop us communicating and having a great time sledding, walking to and from school, kicking a football around or being a bit crazy inside.
A definite highlight was spending Christmas with the kids. They were so grateful not onmy for individual gifts, but also for the company. I really felt like they were welcoming me as part if their famimy.
A difficulty was leaving them, and being aware of the circumstances of their being looked after. I felt a bit upset that the friendships we built were cut away so quickly, but at the end of the day they are in the best place they can be. I would live to go back, and would recommend this experience for everyone who wants to challenge themselves and is also open to new experiences.
