“A truely life changing experience!”

★★★★★

written by ChrisMoller on 08/01/2014

I will never forget the 6 weeks I spend volunteering for SLV in Sri Lanka. The experience taught me so much! The family I lived with was incredibly warm loving people. They treated us all like family and gave us a real insight into Sri Lankan culture and life style. I found each of the projects really interesting and rewarding, especially the special needs projects as I could really see a difference in the women's mood and participation from week to week. I didn't think I was going to enjoy the teaching, but it actually became one of my favorite projects and the experience has inspired me to go into teaching at home. It was really great that we had the opportunity to work on so many different projects as it gave us the chance to work with lots of different age groups and it made every day interesting and versatile. The SLV team and the other volunteers were really supportive and we made great use of each other discussing uncertanties, lesson planning and upcoming plans for the weekends. I had the last week of to travel around the country with my new friends which was great, because the weekends simple isn't enough to explore all the beautiful places in Sri Lanka. All in all a wonderful and highly recommended experience!
