"I came here not quite sure what to expect. But in every way I have found the people caring, helpful, and enlightening. The community is warm, open and different. The work is challenging and fun, and the living is fun and exciting.

"Although most young people don't have the time or money or have never volunteered before, more people my age should consider joining Global Volunteers, because it is such a good experience.
