Aurelia Margot - Teaching at Parbatipur CRC Nepal - Nov 2006
If you're thinking about volunteering but aren't sure… stop thinking about it and Just Do It! My 6 weeks in Chitwan raced by and has left me with experiences I'll remember forever and which have shown me both the deep and humorous side of life. I hope that it will leave me a more spiritual and also chilled out person …
Jesus Emmanuelle Philippines , 41st International Youth Camp in Korea August 3-13, 2006 .
The 11-day camp made me learn so much about life. I should say, I became a better person . I learned the value of respect and tolerance . The difference should be the things that bind us all. We are all common in nature, and that is, we are all loving and caring people. We are friends, and as well as brothers and sisters aiming for a peaceful and better tomorrow.
Also, I have learned the significance of discipline, teamwork, communication and friendship. There is a bunch of enthusiastic hopefuls who really work hard for the universal goal of achieving greater understanding among nations, and peaceful living free from injustice and poverty. The completion of this is within our reach. It is up to us to take the challenge today.
Today we dream and today we act. Tomorrow we will reap the fruits of our acts. So, challenge Today, change Tomorrow.

When I first signed up for the Amnat Charoen workcamp, the thoughts on my mind were "yet another filler for this summer hols". 2 weeks later, I became this more defined, calmer and easygoing person; no longer as lost as I was before.

Workcamp was fun, you get to meet people from all around the world and hang out as well as the "real" feel of local culture, rather than what every
other tourist visits.... So for anyone thinking of going for a workcamp, I say go for it. ;)
