From volunteering, to friends ,to traveling, to the amazing food, it by far exceeded all my expectations. Β During the time at the orphanage we would teach them English, color, play with play-dough and play soccer.
When I first started there, the children would only call me “muchacha” but by the end they actually called me by my name and I felt a sense of accomplishment like I did have an impact on their lives.
The town of San Ramon is very interesting and a little bit of a culture shock at first, but nothing that you can’t adjust to. After only a few weeks it quickly became my home. I made friends with the locals and always had a great time going to Bocaditos for happy hour and eating Antonio’s pizza. I truly hope to come back one day.
This was absolutely one of the best experiences of my life and I hope to go back as soon as possible!
