"This trip has been close to a spiritual experience for me…I have visited almost 40 countries over the years…I can honestly say that none of these visits holds a candle to the insights I gained on this Global Volunteers project. I had hoped this trip would be rewarding for me and that I could help the Vietnamese people in some small way. I most assuredly accomplished both goals!"
~ Glenn Summerlin, Vietnam Volunteer

"Having said 'Good Morning Vietnam' my own way, one person at a time in the streets of Saigon, My Tho and Vinh Long, I'm going home to America knowing that for me, the war in Vietnam and in myself is finally over." ~ John Bochain, Vietnam War veteran, Vietnam Volunteer

"The Vietnamese seem to really like us. Their smiles are warm. Students are always eager to say hello to us. Suzanne and Katie are told that a student, a soon-to-be-bride would be honored to have them at her wedding. And Ben, a former soldier, walks through Vietnam, visiting battle sites and places that were bombed, and is treated so well he wants to return and again help people he has come to love."
~ Janet Rodriguez, Vietnam Volunteer

"These kids need to feel that we care for them, like them and enjoy their company. They are incredibly romantic, idealistic and hopeful for the future. I think all adolescents would like to be this optimistic."
~ Patsy Welton, Vietnam Volunteer
