The
opportunity of being a part of a volunteering programme came as a surprise. The moment I sent my
application, I never expected to get an immediate reply from them. Deep in my
heart, I have always wanted to be part of the program not just to practice what
I have learned from my degree but also to deal with the things I'm scared of
within my self.
So the
assessment came and I'm grateful that I got selected. I processed the
requirements and days went by for the In-Country Orientation. British
counterparts came, and we got to meet them. But one thing that I was really
greatful about is meeting co-batchmates in college whom I can talk to most of
the time. Unfortunately, they need to leave after serving as Returned Volunteers
(RVs). Their journey just ended and I am just about to start with mine.
And now, I'm currently working with my new friends. I have been adjusting and acquiring a lot of new knowledge from them. :D More stories about my volunteering will be posted soon. (Well, I have posted already about the MPR so..it goes on and on)
This is where we stayed for one week training and orientation. Had a great time and fun together with the other volunteers as we are still on the stage of getting to-know-each-other.
Originally, this was the room where girls are supposed to stay. I was the first one to arrive in Crab House and happened to stay for a while in this room before being transferred to the Dorm type. (Strictly no bed-sharing policy)
The pathway that goes to the room I mentioned above. Used to stay here on the couch (which is not shown in the picture) to access the wifi. :D
Just taking a picture upon arrival. This is when all the Returned Volunteers were out of the room. Lucky enough not to be caught by them. hahahahaha
So, this was the dorm type I was talking about. Got transferred here after all Filipino Volunteers arrived. Thankful enough that it was so cozy.
Our picture while eating. Managed to take a picture together with co-volunteers through a waiter's kindness. :D
